Status notes

founded_year: 1987; acquisitions: acquired LoopNet (2012), Apartments.com, Ten-X, Homes.com push, many roll-ups over decades; publicly traded (NASDAQ: CSGP); shutdown_risk: none — dominant incumbent, near-monopoly on CRE comps/listings data in the US

Who it's actually for

The default data backbone for any institutional CRE shop that can afford it — broad but expensive, and pricing is deliberately opaque, so it's a negotiated enterprise sale, not self-serve.
