Andy Florance

CoStar Group

Under the future-focused leadership of Andy Florance, CoStar Group marked its 57th consecutive quarter of double-digit revenue growth in 2025.

Florance’s strategic focus over the past year has been a “residential revolution” spearheaded by Homes.com. Central to this success is his “your listing, your lead” philosophy, a pro-agent model that ensures listing agents retain ownership of their data and leads, effectively challenging the status quo of traditional portals.

2025 was also defined by Florance’s commitment to cutting-edge technology, highlighted by the high-profile acquisition of Matterport. This move, combined with the acquisition of the Australian marketplace Domain, has expanded CoStar’s global footprint and technical capabilities.

From achieving record-breaking bookings in the apartments sector to skyrocketing Homes.com’s unaided brand awareness to 36%, Florance’s agility and conviction continue to reshape how properties are marketed and discovered. By prioritizing transparency and agent empowerment, he is rebuilding the trust and efficiency of the real estate ecosystem.
