real estate research
A company providing research services on real estate markets and property-market trends.
A real estate research company provides research services regarding real estate markets or trends.
The subject is the market for property, including its trends. Investigating a building's engineering performance alone is a different research activity.
Research services can inform a transaction without making the researcher its sales or leasing agent. A property-specific valuation is separately described by valuation/rating.
