Provides real estate data, analytics and valuation/tax software and advisory services, including the ARGUS commercial real estate software platform.
Analytics sells subscriptions to ARGUS valuation and cash-flow software and property data, a recurring base, while property-tax advisory is paid largely by fees tied to the tax savings it wins for owners, so it comes in lumps at assessment time. The purchase of Reonomy in 2021 broadened its data offering.
In one line: A commercial real estate data/analytics and software company like CoStar's software peer.
Moat: narrow (switching costs, installed base, brand). ARGUS is an industry-standard commercial real estate valuation platform, embedded deeply in customer workflows.
