Researched and Verifi ed … Your Valuation EdgeUnlike services that merely aggregate and post a subset of for-sale listings with unconfi rmed details online, CoStar takes an approach that revolution-ized the industry a generation ago:
Our goal is to include and verify every for-
sale listing in the U.S. and actively research
principal-to-principal deals and thousands
of other commercial real estate sales that
never make it to a listing service.
Why this painstaking, building-by-building approach?
Because your decisions to buy, sell, fi nance or value commercial property are too important to trust to unverifi ed, unresearched sales transaction reports.
Today only CoStar COMPS offers a complete census database of researched and verifi ed sales transactions. Over one million records and counting. And only CoStar backs your need for independent, impartial information with the indus-try’s largest professional research organization.
More than 1,000 highly-trained fi eld and analytic research professionals –
■ Physically inspect and photograph properties■ Call and interview the dealmakers ■ Uncover and confi rm transaction details ■ Examine and consolidate documents and deeds
No one else sweats sales comparables details like CoStar. As you weigh your valuation options, take time to get the full story on the researched, verifi ed difference of CoStar COMPS Professional.

This extra measure of verifi cation underscores the care and precision with which CoStar approaches each transaction– not to mention the time it saves you.
Unmatched Analytic Insight The Analytic tab presents an amazing array of transaction insight. Select from up to 16 charts, including Direct & Sublet Leasing Activity; Time On Market Analysis and more. Sales and leasing transaction history?

■ Track results with a consistent, stan-dards-based research methodology that provides uniform reporting and analytical views for more confi dent decision-support.

erty detail you need to mitigate risk and
maximize profi ts, there’s no substitute

boots-on-the-street that canvass, pho-
tograph, measure, and confi rm build-
ing-by-building can do it. These fi eld
researchers are supported by research
analysts that interview dealmakers, sift
through public records, gather transac-
tion documents and verify aspects of
