Investor Relations

CoStar Group Inc. has cemented itself as a pivotal force within the commercial real estate landscape, leveraging technology to revolutionize the way real estate professionals access and utilize property information. Founded in 1987 by Andrew Florance, the company has meticulously built a comprehensive database and software suite that serves as an indispensable tool for brokers, investors, and property managers. At its core, CoStar operates as a data powerhouse, amassing vast amounts of information on commercial properties across the globe. This data spans building specifications, tenancy details, ownership information, and historical sales and lease data, among other metrics. By offering a platform that aggregates such detailed insights, CoStar empowers its clientele to make informed decisions, from property valuation and acquisition to market analysis and asset management.

The company primarily generates its revenue through subscription services, providing access to its extensive database and analytics tools. Users, including real estate firms, institutions, and small businesses, pay premium fees for real-time access to CoStar's vast repository of continuously updated information. Additionally, CoStar Group extends its reach beyond mere data provision by supplying advertising solutions through platforms like Apartments.com. Here, landlords and property managers pay to list rental properties, seeking visibility among potential tenants. This additional revenue stream underscores CoStar’s dual role as both a data provider and a marketing channel within the real estate ecosystem. As a result, CoStar Group Inc. has not only carved out a niche for itself but has also become an integral part of the real estate industry's fabric, guiding critical business decisions through precision and innovation.
