Land.com will incorporate valuations on 2.8
million parcels of land provided by Ag-Analytics’ AcreValue
platform
CoStar Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: CSGP) (“CoStar Group,” “we” or
“our”), a leading provider of online real estate marketplaces,
information and analytics in the commercial and residential
property markets, today announced that it has acquired agricultural
data company Ag-Analytics. The strategic acquisition of
Ag-Analytics will specifically enhance CoStar Group’s Land.com
platform, marking the company’s extension into the agricultural
land sector. This acquisition will strengthen the data capabilities
for farmland, forestland, recreational, and other rural properties
through Ag-Analytics’ cutting-edge AcreValue platform, unlocking
new opportunities for land and ag-focused institutional investors
and lenders.
AcreValue provides an innovative outlet for farmers, land
investors, land professionals and landowners to gather the most
accurate insights and data on agricultural land. With the most
comprehensive set of land data in one easy-to-use site, AcreValue
provides the fastest way to prospect and learn about any piece of
land, comp sales and its current valuations. AcreValue covers the
48 contiguous states, serving as the leading solution for farmland
and non-residential land analytics in the U.S. and catering to
multiple segments of the land market – including farmer operators,
non-operating landowners, and land professionals such as bankers,
brokers, appraisers, energy companies, and investors.
Land.com, CoStar Group’s premier marketplace for discovering,
buying, and selling rural real estate, will incorporate AcreValue’s
reports and analytics into all applicable listings. These reports
include geographical data, soil composition, elevations, historical
and other information. With 1.5 million registered users on
AcreValue and data on tens of millions of parcels, this integration
will provide even greater exposure and deeper insights for
clients.
Ag-Analytics has a strategic alliance with Farmer Mac, the
nation’s secondary market for agricultural credit, where the farm
sector real estate debt currently totals $355 billion. Farmer Mac
leverages the AcreValue platform as a channel to further their
lending market, delivering new opportunities for innovative
financing directly to the digital farm gate. This partnership
increases efficiency and transparency in the agricultural credit
market.
“The addition of Ag-Analytics services into the Land.com
platform is yet another example of how CoStar Group blends best in
class platforms and leading analytics to support real estate
owners, brokers, operators, and professionals,” said CoStar
Group Founder and Chief Executive Officer Andy Florance. “We
have identified a massive market potential, with farm sector real
estate alone representing a $3.4 trillion asset class, creating a
range of opportunities to maximize revenue and provide increased
value for our clients. Together, we will set a new standard for
data-driven decision-making in the land and real estate market. I
look forward to working with the Ag-Analytics team on these
incredible opportunities.”
"We are excited to join CoStar and be part of its
industry-leading real estate network," says Joshua Woodard, Founder
of Ag-Analytics. "AcreValue and Land.com bring strong synergies in
land data and analytics, expanding our ability to provide valuable
insights and innovative solutions to landowners and buyers."
Ag-Analytics was founded in 2018 and is headquartered in Ithaca,
New York.
