From what I understand, the issue for costar is that most landlords and brokers are not volunteering to provide the data (so costar has to hire people to get it). Our view of the world is that if brokers and landlords get value from our site in exchange for providing content then it's a win-win. At the end of the day brokers and landlords want to fill vacancies and generate revenue. Our goal is to help facilitate those introductions by creating more transparency for the tenant. thanks Christopher.
