Case Study: The Andover Company achieves 80% faster research and 50% shorter sales cycles with CoStar Group

The Andover Company Cuts Research Time by 80 Percent Using CoStar Suite

The Andover Company, a Puget Sound–based commercial real estate firm managing over 850,000 square feet, wanted to reduce time spent on research, eliminate the cost and upkeep of an internal property database, and free brokers from the office so they could spend more time building relationships and closing deals. To address this, they turned to CoStar Group, adopting CoStar Suite for market research and reporting and CoStar’s mobile application for field access.

CoStar Group delivered a combined marketing and research solution—marketing listings on the CoStar platform, using CoStar Suite for comprehensive market reports, and leveraging the mobile app for real-time property data in the field. The results: The Andover Company cut research time by 80%, shortened its sales cycle by about 50%, eliminated the need for an internal database and its associated costs, and generated more inbound leads and client confidence—outcomes the firm attributes directly to CoStar Group.
