We continue that effort today and are always working to improve and drive innovation.

This is how we deliver for our customers, our employees, and investors.

By equipping the brightest minds with the best resources available, we provide an invaluable edge in real estate.

CoStar Risk Analytics, located in Boston, MA, works with market participants across the commercial real estate (CRE) lending spectrum.

Our solution provides lenders with the ability to better target business, appropriately price loans, make informed approval of credits, actively manage their portfolio with robust stress testing and surveillance measures, assess refinance risk and execute with a disciplined framework.
