Statlyst data desk · updated November 11, 2026 · next review December 26, 2026

CoStar is the best commercial real estate database for brokers, appraisers and investors in 2026, because it tracks 8.5 million+ properties and 5 million+ sale comps and more than 300,000 subscribers use it. Crexi Intelligence suits independent brokers and investors who want comps and owner data at a published $269 per month billed yearly, and Regrid is the cheapest paid option at $10 per month for parcel owners and zoning.

Adoption figures come from company filings, official releases or independent surveys, linked in each entry. We compared documented features and published prices; we did not run hands-on tests. Scoring method

This list is for commercial brokers, appraisers, lenders and investors researching properties, owners and comps in the US. It mixes three kinds of product: comp and research platforms (CoStar, Crexi Intelligence, CompStak, MSCI Real Capital Analytics), owner and records databases (Reonomy, ATTOM Property Navigator, Regrid) and prospecting tools (PropStream, PropertyRadar), plus LoopNet for active listings. Scores weight features 35%, adoption 35% and value 30%. Adoption figures come from company filings and vendor pages where a citable number exists; where none exists we scored adoption conservatively. We compared documented features and published prices; we did not run test searches. Institutional platforms quote prices privately, so those rows are marked pending.

AssessmentCoStar ranks first because it has the deepest documented comp set (5 million+ sale comps and 7 million+ lease activities) and the widest use, with more than 300,000 subscribers. Crexi Intelligence is the best self-serve alternative, with 46 million+ sales comps and a published price. CompStak is the pick for verified lease comps, and brokers can use it free by contributing deals. LoopNet is where to search active listings, and Reonomy is the strongest tool for finding the real owners behind LLCs from $400 per month. Regrid, PropStream and PropertyRadar are low-cost owner and parcel tools, MSCI Real Capital Analytics serves institutional investors tracking global deals, and ATTOM Property Navigator gives appraisers and lenders public record reports.

  1. 1

    CoStar

    8.5overall

    CoStar Group's subscription platform for commercial property records, lease and sale comps, tenants, owners and market analytics.

    Best forBrokers, appraisers, lenders and institutional owners who need verified comps and market data across every major property type.

    Adoption data

    300,000+CoStar says more than 300,000 subscribers use its commercial real estate platform, according to its product overview page checked in November 2026.

    CoStar, About CoStar (2026): “300,000+ CoStar subscribers keep logging in for all these reasons and more”

    CoStar is the reference database for US commercial real estate, and its own figures explain why. The company says it tracks more than 8.5 million properties, 7 million lease activities, 5 million sale comps and 8.2 million commercial tenants, and that more than 300,000 subscribers use the platform. The product menu covers property records, listings, tenants, public record owners, fund data, loans, sales comps and lease activity, with market analytics, rent benchmarking, lease analysis and custom reports on top. CoStar describes its approach as census-level research by the largest research team in the industry, which is the main reason brokers and appraisers trust its comps. Parent CoStar Group reported $1,259 million of CoStar product revenue in 2025, so the business is large and stable. The drawbacks are cost and access. CoStar does not publish prices, contracts are negotiated per seat and market, and a solo investor who only needs owner names will pay for far more than they use. For a brokerage or investment team that lives on comps, it remains the first database to evaluate.

    Strengths

    • +The largest documented comp set on this list, with 5 million+ sale comps
    • +Covers brokers, owners, occupiers, appraisers and hoteliers in one product
    • +More than 300,000 subscribers, so peers and clients often already use it

    Limitations

    • −No public price list; subscriptions are quoted after a demo
    • −Priced for professional firms, not occasional users
    • −Lease and sale data is closed to non-subscribers

    SummaryCoStar is the best commercial real estate database for brokers, appraisers and institutional investors who need verified lease and sale comps. Request a demo and ask for a quote limited to the markets and property types you cover.

  2. 2

    Crexi Intelligence

    8.0overall

    Crexi's paid research layer on top of its commercial listings marketplace, with property records, sales comps, owners and debt data.

    Best forIndependent brokers and part-time investors who want nationwide CRE records and comps with a published monthly price.

    Crexi started as a commercial listings marketplace, and Crexi Intelligence turns that traffic into a research product with a price you can see. The free tier lets anyone browse every active listing, list properties and message brokers, plus basic historical listing data. The Select plan, at $299 per month or $269 per month on a 12-month commitment, opens nationwide property data: Crexi lists 153 million+ property records, 46 million+ sales comps, historical financial and leasing data, debt and financing information and ownership details, with owner contact credits added as you go. Higher Standard and team tiers add AI tools across the deal cycle, more seats, a success manager and Crexi Fuse for putting property data on your own site, but those are quoted. For a broker who cannot justify a CoStar contract, this is the most complete self-serve option we found. The trade-offs are that contact data is metered and Crexi does not publish a user count, so we scored adoption below CoStar and LoopNet.

    Strengths

    • +One of the few CRE databases with a published self-serve price
    • +Free tier gives access to all active marketplace listings
    • +Comps, debt and ownership in the same subscription

    Limitations

    • −Owner contact details cost extra credits
    • −Team seats and API delivery (Crexi Fuse) need a sales conversation
    • −No public user count we could cite, so adoption is scored conservatively

    SummaryCrexi Intelligence is the best value commercial real estate database for independent brokers and investors who want comps and owner data without a quoted contract. Start on the free marketplace tier and upgrade when you need records and comps.

  3. 3

    CompStak

    7.8overall

    A commercial lease and sale comps network where brokers and appraisers trade the comps they have for the comps they need, plus a paid platform for owners and lenders.

    Best forBrokers and appraisers who can contribute deals, and owners, lenders and investors who want verified lease comps.

    Adoption data

    40,000+CompStak says more than 40,000 commercial real estate professionals contribute comps to its Exchange network across 105 markets, according to its Exchange page checked in November 2026.

    CompStak, CompStak Exchange (2026): “40,000+ verified CRE professionals at brokerage and appraisal firms submit comps daily.”

    CompStak solves the comp problem differently from CoStar: instead of a research team calling around, members submit the deals they close and earn credits to open other members' comps. CompStak says the Exchange has 40,000+ professionals contributing across 105 markets and 4 million+ verified comps, with each submission reviewed by analysts before it is released. Lease comps show the signed starting rent, escalations, free rent, landlord work and net effective rent, which is the detail tenant reps and appraisers need. Sale comps include buyer, price, cap rate and NOI, and CompStak points out that this covers non-disclosure states such as Texas where public records omit the price. Submissions are anonymous. Brokers, appraisers and researchers join Exchange free after a work email check. Owners, lenders and investors use CompStak One, a subscription with the full dataset, analytics and portfolios, and the One Connect tier adds Rent Predictor and an MCP server. The catch is that free access depends on contributing, and paid plans are quoted.

    Strengths

    • +Free access for qualifying brokers, appraisers and researchers
    • +Lease comps show signed starting rent, not asking rent
    • +Sale prices in non-disclosure states such as Texas

    Limitations

    • −Exchange users must contribute comps to see comps
    • −Owner, lender and investor plans are quoted
    • −Coverage depends on what members submit in each market

    SummaryCompStak is the best lease comps database for brokers and appraisers willing to trade their own deals for access. Owners and lenders should ask for a CompStak One quote alongside CoStar.

  4. 4

    LoopNet

    7.7overall

    CoStar Group's commercial real estate listings marketplace for properties for sale and for lease.

    Best forInvestors and tenants searching active for-sale and for-lease listings, and brokers marketing their own listings.

    Adoption data

    $312 millionCoStar Group's full year 2025 results show LoopNet generated $312 million in revenue in 2025, up from $282 million in 2024.

    CoStar Group, CoStar Group Full Year 2025: Revenue Increased 19% Year-over-Year (2025): “LoopNet 84 72 312 282”

    LoopNet is a listings marketplace rather than a research database, but it is where many brokers and investors begin, so it belongs on this list. Parent CoStar Group describes LoopNet as the most trafficked commercial real estate marketplace, and its 2025 results put LoopNet revenue at $312 million, up from $282 million in 2024, which reflects how many brokers pay to market listings there. Buyers and tenants can search buildings, condos, land, portfolios and businesses for sale or lease. What LoopNet does not give you is the deeper record set: closed lease and sale comps, owner entities, debt history and tenant data sit in CoStar, sold as a separate subscription. LoopNet also blocks automated access to its pages, so we cite only CoStar Group's own release for figures and could not check current advertising prices. Use it to see what is on the market today, and pair it with a records database for due diligence.

    Strengths

    • +CoStar Group calls it the most trafficked commercial real estate marketplace
    • +$312 million of 2025 revenue shows deep broker participation
    • +Good first stop for active listings before paying for a database

    Limitations

    • −Shows active listings, not full ownership, debt or comp histories
    • −Listing and advertising prices are not published
    • −Its public pages block automated access, so we relied on CoStar Group filings

    SummaryLoopNet is the best place to search active commercial listings for sale and lease. Pair it with CoStar, Crexi Intelligence or Reonomy when you need comps, owners and debt.

  5. 5

    Reonomy

    7.6overall

    A commercial property data platform that links public records, transactions and corporate filings to find the real owners behind LLCs.

    Best forBrokers, lenders and commercial service providers prospecting property owners and off-market deals.

    Reonomy is built for one job that comps databases handle poorly: finding out who actually owns a commercial building. The company says it covers 53 million+ US commercial properties, 68 million+ transactions, 5.2 million+ companies and 30 million+ owner and contact records, drawing on county assessors, Secretary of State filings, census data and partnerships with Cotality and ICE. Machine learning resolves each property to one record and unwinds shell LLCs, holding companies and trusts so you reach a decision-maker rather than a registered agent. A likelihood to sell score ranks properties by ownership tenure, debt position and transaction history, which suits brokers prospecting off-market deals. Property details, sales, debt, liens, refinances and occupant data sit in the same record, and you can filter by more than 200 criteria. Plans start at $400 per month on an annual subscription, with a monthly option, bulk CSV feeds and an API. It does not replace a lease comp source, and Reonomy publishes no user count, so adoption scores conservatively.

    Strengths

    • +Strongest owner-unmasking tools on this list
    • +Published starting price of $400 per month
    • +Covers all 50 states, 3,100+ counties and 385 MSAs

    Limitations

    • −No lease comps of the kind CoStar and CompStak provide
    • −Monthly plan exports are limited to 1,000 per month
    • −No public user count we could cite

    SummaryReonomy is the best commercial real estate database for finding the real owners behind LLCs and prospecting off-market deals. Pair it with a comps source if you also value or lease property.

  6. 6

    Regrid

    7.4overall

    A nationwide land parcel database with ownership, zoning and building footprints, sold through a low-cost map app, a data store and APIs.

    Best forInvestors, site selectors and developers who need parcel boundaries, owners and zoning at a low price.

    Regrid is not a comps database, but for many investors the first question is simply who owns this parcel and what is it zoned for, and Regrid answers that for less money than anything else here. Its data store lists 161 million+ parcel records across 3,229+ counties, 203 million+ building footprints, 180 million+ addresses and 144 million+ parcels with standardized zoning. The Property App puts that on a map: the free Starter plan allows 25 parcel lookups per day, Pro costs $10 per month or $100 per year with 1,000 lookups per day and mobile access, and Team is $20 per user per month with premium data fields. Larger users can buy county or state files by card or license nationwide data through bulk files, a feature service or a parcel API. Regrid's real estate page highlights ownership, valuation, zoning and building context for scoping deals. It has no lease or sale comps and shows owners as recorded, so use it for site sourcing and owner lookups rather than valuation.

    Strengths

    • +Cheapest paid plan on this list at $10 per month
    • +Free Starter plan for 25 parcel lookups per day
    • +Standardized zoning is useful for development sites

    Limitations

    • −No lease or sale comps
    • −Ownership shows the entity of record, without LLC unmasking
    • −Nationwide bulk and API licenses need a sales quote

    SummaryRegrid is the cheapest way to look up commercial parcel owners and zoning nationwide, at $10 per month. Add a comps database when you move from sourcing to pricing.

  7. 7

    PropStream

    7.2overall

    A nationwide property data and lead generation tool for investors, agents and brokers, with skip tracing and marketing built in.

    Best forInvestors and brokers who want owner lists, distress signals and outreach tools in one low-cost subscription.

    PropStream is a property data tool that leans toward investors and agents, and it fits this list for small commercial and mixed-use buyers who prospect owners directly. PropStream lists 160 million+ property records, 308 million+ deeds and sales, 185 million+ mortgages, 41 million+ pre-foreclosures and 150 million+ involuntary liens, which makes it strong at spotting owners under financial pressure. The Essentials plan costs $99 per month, or $81 per month paid annually at $972, and includes 25,000 monthly saves and exports, AI Search and a one-time $100 marketing credit for skip tracing, emails or postcards, with a 7-day free trial. Brokers can use its analysis tools and direct mail without buying a separate outreach product. The limits are clear for commercial work: there are no signed lease comps, tenant records or rent benchmarks, and the data model is built around residential use. Treat it as a low-cost owner prospecting tool rather than a CRE research platform.

    Strengths

    • +Low published price with a 7-day free trial
    • +Lien, mortgage and pre-foreclosure data for finding motivated owners
    • +Outreach tools included, so no separate mailing vendor is needed

    Limitations

    • −Built mainly for residential investors; no CRE lease comps
    • −No commercial tenant or rent data
    • −Some features, such as PropStream Connect, are add-ons on Essentials

    SummaryPropStream is a good low-cost choice for investors prospecting small commercial and mixed-use owners. Choose CoStar, Crexi or CompStak if you need lease comps.

  8. 8

    MSCI Real Capital Analytics

    7.1overall

    MSCI's global private real estate transaction database linking deals, assets, funds, investors and lenders in one data model.

    Best forInstitutional investors, fund managers and researchers tracking capital flows and pricing across global markets.

    MSCI Real Capital Analytics, long known as RCA, is the database institutional investors use to see how capital moves through global private real estate. MSCI describes an integrated view of investors, funds, assets and transactions in a single data model. Transaction intelligence tracks pricing, volumes, liquidity and buyer and seller behavior by fund and investor type. Fund-to-asset mapping shows which assets sit inside specific funds and how ownership changes, and investor profiles show top markets, sector mix, holdings and deal history. Loans, lenders and funds are part of the same model, and MSCI publishes Capital Trends reports for the US, Europe and Asia Pacific from the data. That makes RCA the strongest choice here for cross-border research and fund-level ownership. It is less useful for a local broker: coverage centers on institutional transactions, pricing is quoted after a demo, and MSCI does not publish a user count on the page, so value and adoption score lower.

    Strengths

    • +Best global coverage of institutional deals on this list
    • +Links assets to the funds and investors that own them
    • +Backed by MSCI's indexes and research

    Limitations

    • −Quoted pricing aimed at institutions
    • −Focused on investment-grade deals rather than small properties
    • −No user count published on the product page

    SummaryMSCI Real Capital Analytics is the best database for institutional investors tracking global deal flow and fund ownership. Local brokers will get more from CoStar or Crexi.

  9. 9

    ATTOM Property Navigator

    7.0overall

    ATTOM's web research tool for residential and commercial property reports, comps, valuations and owner data, formerly GeoData Plus.

    Best forAppraisers, lenders and agents who want property reports and comps from ATTOM's national records without building an API integration.

    ATTOM is one of the main US property data wholesalers, and Property Navigator, formerly GeoData Plus, is how individuals and small teams use that data without an API. ATTOM says it covers 160 million+ US properties, 3,000+ counties and more than 70 billion rows of transaction-level data. Each report covers land and building size, legal description, owner names, taxes and assessments, zoning, flood data, sales and mortgage history, active mortgages and equity analysis, for residential and commercial properties. You can search by property, foreclosure, pre-foreclosure, sales or mortgage criteria, run comparables and market analysis, and use automated valuation models. A Report Generation Agent turns results into client-ready reports. Larger firms can take the same data by API, bulk delivery, Snowflake, Databricks or an MCP server. The limit for commercial users is that this is public record data: there are no signed lease comps or tenant intelligence, so it complements rather than replaces CoStar or CompStak. Plan prices did not load in USD in our check.

    Strengths

    • +Covers 3,000+ US counties with 70 billion+ rows of transaction-level data
    • +Owner names, mortgages and equity analysis in each report
    • +Same data is available by API, bulk files and Snowflake or Databricks

    Limitations

    • −Mostly public record data; no signed lease comps
    • −Commercial tenant data is not a focus
    • −USD plan prices did not load in our check

    SummaryATTOM Property Navigator suits appraisers and lenders who want national public record reports and comps in a browser. Choose ATTOM's API or bulk data if you need the records inside your own systems.

  10. 10

    PropertyRadar

    6.8overall

    A property and owner lead generation platform with lists, monitoring and outreach, including plays for commercial agents.

    Best forCommercial agents and small investment teams who farm submarkets and track owner-users and portfolio owners.

    PropertyRadar is a prospecting tool rather than a research database, and it earns a place here for commercial agents who win business by farming owners. Its commercial agent plays cover submarket farming, distressed commercial properties, owner-user exits, buyer needs and portfolio owners, and the same engine supports residential investors, mortgage pros and service companies. The Solo plan costs $119 per month, or $99 per month prepaid annually, for one user with unlimited views, saves and imports, 10,000 monthly exports, 10,000 monitored properties, 250 monthly phone and email lookups, email sends and API access. Team costs $249 per month for three users. Monitoring is the most useful feature for brokers, since it alerts you when a tracked property or owner changes. PropertyRadar says media, government agencies and law enforcement have used it for 20 years. It has no lease comps, rents or tenant data, so it works best alongside a comps source.

    Strengths

    • +Published prices with a 5-day free trial
    • +Monitoring alerts you when tracked properties change
    • +Ready-made searches for commercial prospecting

    Limitations

    • −No lease comps or rent data
    • −Contact lookups are capped per month
    • −Most plays are aimed at residential investors and agents

    SummaryPropertyRadar is a solid owner prospecting tool for commercial agents who farm a submarket. Use it with a comps database rather than instead of one.

Choosing a product

Decide whether you need comps or owners
Comps databases (CoStar, CompStak, Crexi Intelligence) tell you what properties leased or sold for. Owner databases (Reonomy, Regrid, PropStream, PropertyRadar) tell you who owns a property and how to reach them. Brokers who value and lease property need comps; brokers who prospect for listings need owner data, and many teams buy one of each.
Check lease comp quality, not just counts
Lease comps are hard to collect because they are private. CoStar uses its own research team and CompStak verifies member submissions and shows signed starting rent, free rent and landlord work. Public record tools such as ATTOM and Regrid do not include lease comps at all.
Look for LLC unmasking
Most commercial buildings are held by LLCs. Reonomy says its machine learning unwinds shell entities, holding companies and trusts to find the real decision-maker, while Regrid shows the owner of record. If your outreach depends on reaching people, test owner resolution during a trial.
Compare published and quoted prices
Regrid Pro costs $10 per month, PropStream $99, PropertyRadar $119, Crexi Intelligence $269 per month billed yearly and Reonomy from $400 per month billed annually. CoStar, CompStak One, LoopNet advertising and MSCI Real Capital Analytics are quoted, so ask each for a price covering the same markets and seats.
Match coverage to your market
Local brokers need depth in their submarket; institutional investors need global deal coverage. MSCI Real Capital Analytics covers global private real estate, CompStak lists 105 markets, and Reonomy and Regrid cover all US counties. Ask vendors for coverage in your specific metro before signing.
