CoStar's analytics and listing coverage have completely changed how we identify commercial opportunities. The ability to track ownership, tenancy and comparable transactions in one platform saves our team hours every week. For serious CRE work it is worth every cent.
All-in-one CRE intelligence
CoStar gives me accurate sales comps, vacancy trends and tenant data that I simply cannot find anywhere else with this reliability. It has become essential for putting together credible investment analyses. The interface has a learning curve, but the data quality justifies the effort.
Accurate comps and market trends
Steep learning curve
There is no real substitute for CoStar when you need authoritative commercial real estate information. The property records and market reports are thorough and kept current. It would earn five stars if the pricing were more accessible for independent professionals.
Authoritative, up-to-date data
Pricing aimed at larger firms
The CoStar dataset is genuinely excellent and helps my underwriting enormously. What holds me back from a higher rating is the inflexible annual contracts and the cost when you only need occasional access. The information is top tier, but the commercial model is frustrating.
Excellent underlying data
Rigid contracts and high cost
As a commercial broker, CoStar's database of properties, lease comps and analytics is something I rely on daily. The depth of coverage on office and industrial space is unmatched in our market. My only grumble is the subscription cost makes it tough for smaller firms.
Deep, reliable CRE data
Expensive subscription
