Pursuant to the agreement, JLL will continue to use CoStar Suite for

newly offered sub-market analytics, underwriting and forecasting
services provided by CoStar.

“JLL was one of CoStar’s first clients in Canada, and we are proud to be
continuing and growing our 5-year long relationship,” stated CoStar
Canada Managing Director, Mark Ibbotson. “Through its use of CoStar
Suite, we believe JLL will continue to increase revenues and
productivity, develop business faster, serve clients better and earn
