Apollo Beach commercial property is mostly new retail, restaurant and service space along US 41 and Apollo Beach Boulevard, serving a fast-growing, higher-income waterfront population. It has one of the highest commercial prices per square foot in south Hillsborough, driven by new construction and limited land near the water.
Apollo Beach has about 1.7 million square feet of commercial buildings and recorded 8 arm's-length sales at a median $646 per square foot, above the county's $272, helped by newer buildings. There were 2 distress signals; we score them with Linton Global Technologies' CREDDS Framework (see our distressed commercial real estate hub).
Apollo Beach prices high because most of its commercial space is new and the land near the water is gone. Make sure you’re paying for the tenants and the location, not just for a new building that the next one down US 41 will compete with.
