A CoStar Group Case Study
Chesapeake Realty Partners, a Mid-Atlantic developer with more than 60 years of experience, needed timely, verified market intelligence to identify profitable multifamily acquisitions and to maximize revenue from its existing assets. To evaluate potential Class A renovation targets, measure competitor rents and concessions, and make faster, more confident buy-or-pass decisions, Chesapeake turned to CoStar Group’s solutions—primarily CoStar Market Analytics and Apartments.com.
CoStar Group implemented CoStar Market Analytics for real‑time rent and sale comps, occupancy, concessions, construction and transactional history, supplemented by Apartments.com listing and marketing data. The combined solution saved hours of fieldwork, enabled Chesapeake to build a renovation pipeline, avoid unnecessary concessions, drive leads and leases, and make confident investment decisions—backed by coverage of 470,000+ multifamily properties, 75,000 daily updates and six million rent observations per month—helping preserve what the company estimates could be millions of dollars in value.
