As new CMBS are being sold, I believe that investors will be willing to dip their toes in the commercial real estate market. There are plenty of legitimate bargains in CRE and CoStar will be in greater demand over the next 5 years.

Costar, a stock that is overvalued, with a software that is overvalued, in a commercial real estate market that is overvalued....well, you get the point.

Two part play in an industry that may be ripe for competition.
Short CSGP and Long LOOP on valuation measures.

COSTAR is not reliable and doesn't encompass nearly enough of what I need. They most lkiely maxed out their customer base. The white-hot real estate boom, which produced more newbie real estate experts than dots, in dot-bombs is now over. The real estate industry is in contraction. Forward projections based on their discretionary products are ... lets just say Foolish.
