Why Corporate and Retail Tenants Choose CoStar REM for Commercial Leasing Software
When tenant teams evaluate commercial leasing software, they are usually asking the same questions. Can it do more than store lease data? Can it help us negotiate better? Can it support renewals, new locations, reporting, and lease accounting in one place?

How does CoStar REM help tenants across the full lease lifecycle?
Strategic planning – budgeting and analysis
Perform analysis and forecast future capital spend. Prioritize actions based on expected organizational impact.
For tenant teams, this means using portfolio data and market context to evaluate where to renew, where to consolidate, and where to invest. Instead of making decisions in a silo, teams can use market data and analytics to compare locations, benchmark rents, and prioritize actions based on both lease obligations and broader market conditions.
Execution – lease renewals and new locations
Determine optimal lease rates and space alternatives leveraging data from sale and lease comps.
CoStar REM helps teams analyze lease comps, review alternatives, and bring better data into renewal and relocation decisions. That is especially useful for tenants trying to reduce occupancy costs or support site selection with current market evidence.
Portfolio operation – lease administration and rent payments
Provide organizational visibility to critical information. Report on key property attributes. Manage co-tenancy requirements.
On the operational side, CoStar REM supports tenant teams that need better control over leases, deadlines, and rent obligations. Through lease administration software, teams can centralize lease data, improve reporting, and stay on top of key dates across a growing portfolio.
Lease accounting – month-end close and financial reporting
Calculate balance sheet impact of leasing decisions. Examine lease comps and rents to support FMV analysis.
For organizations that need software to support both real estate and accounting teams, CoStar REM connects lease activity to lease accounting workflows. That gives stakeholders better visibility into the financial impact of lease decisions while supporting reporting and compliance requirements.
How does CoStar REM support commercial real estate lease analysis needs?
Most teams comparing commercial lease analysis software are not looking for data for its own sake. They want insight they can use to weigh options, reduce risk, and make smarter decisions about renewals, relocations, and growth.

- compare current lease terms to market comps
- review alternative spaces and comparable rates
- analyze submarket conditions before renewals
