tenantscout vs costar

CoStar tells you about the market. TenantScout tells you who to call about one vacancy.

CoStar is where many brokers research properties, listings, and comps. TenantScout picks up after that, at the point where a listing needs a tenant and someone has to start calling.

What CoStar is

A commercial real estate information platform. Brokers use it for listings, property records, lease and sale comps, and market research across submarkets.

What TenantScout is

A prospecting tool for one listing at a time. It reads the offering memorandum, ranks the uses the building suits, and gives you the operating businesses nearby that fit each use, with a talking point for every one.

The question each one answers

CoStar answers what is happening in the market and what this building is. TenantScout answers which kinds of business fit this space and which of them to call this week.

How they stack

Research the property and its comps where you already do. Then upload the OM to TenantScout to get up to three ranked uses and a call list for each. Work the list from the built-in CRM and pipeline, and mail a postcard to the businesses you want to reach on paper.

Where the call list comes from

TenantScout builds lists from its own business index, assembled from Overture Maps places and city business-licence open data. The licences are listed on the data sources page. It does not copy listing portals.

What you still review

TenantScout ranks uses and shows its reasoning. Review zoning, permitted uses, and property conditions before you advise a client.

What TenantScout does

Upload an offering memorandum, a listing URL, or a property profile. TenantScout ranks the property's highest and best uses, up to three, and builds a call list of real nearby businesses for each use it can source, with a talking point for every one. The steps are on how it works.
