CoStar Reports

All of our commercial agents are busily learning the latest features of CoStar, with intensive training from both inside and outside the Company.  How does this help you?  We have lots of big data and specific facts about properties in Connecticut, that you can request to help you evaluate choices, locations, your current space, and more.  Although clients these days can find information all over the internet by searching themselves, they rarely have access to the complete inventory in a given area.  And, if they aren't regular searchers, they may not know everything that's possible to download or format.

So give us a call.  Tell us what you're looking to learn, and we have a program for that!  Information is power, and we're feeling very powerful these days.  Let us put that knowledge to work for you.

Office Space Update

CoStar, our national research tool, has found that the rebound in large company profits and sales is beginning to  expand to smaller employers.  Nationally, office space use is creeping up, and vacancy rates--already low due to lack of construction in recent years--are low.  This is in marked contrast to what we have been seeing in the past couple of years.  In our region, we have been noticing a bigger number of startups, maybe a natural  result of people being laid off from their jobs, but also a sign of confidence in the future of industry here.

If you are a tenant, now is the time to renew, expand, or lengthen your lease, before concessions disappear and landlords look to recover some of what they've given back recently.  If you are a landlord, good news appears to be around the corner.  And not a moment too soon for us!
