CoStar Group (NASDAQ: CSGP), a leading provider of online real estate marketplaces, information, and analytics in the property markets, announced today that it has completed its acquisition of lease administration and accounting platform Visual Lease. The strategic acquisition will enhance CoStar Group’s Real Estate Manager business line and provide additional lease management and lease accounting value to corporations of all sizes.

Implementation of Visual Lease’s technology will be seamless for all CoStar Real Estate Manager users. This will also provide Visual Lease’s mid-market customers with a new opportunity to grow into an enterprise solution. The platform’s GASB experience strengthens CoStar Group’s utility for government customers, while its ESG analytics product makes CoStar Group even stronger for identifying sustainability solutions across their portfolio.
