Research Subscriptions and Services
Accurate Information to Make Great Decisions
Our research process ensures that our clients and consultants have the most current and accurate information possible to make great decisions quickly. Every month, we collect just about every data element possible on the local market, survey local executives, speak with our consultants who are out in the field, and publish our analysis of the local economy and housing market in all of the major Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs). Our clients and consultants carefully vet our research conclusions, comparing them to what they are seeing in the market, and in turn enhance our analysis every month. We have also developed a number of proprietary indices, surveys, and models that deliver a unique view on specific housing industry dynamics.
Clients in an ongoing, retainer-based relationship have access to our published research, client services, and exclusive events.
