About us

Altos Research is the premier resource for real-time real estate data. Altos offers weekly market statistics, analysis and reporting for 99% of the zip codes in the U.S., helping real estate professionals, investors, financial institutions, and their clients make better-informed decisions. Traditional real estate analysis uses highly latent, regional data that can lag several months behind what's currently happening in the market. Altos uses proprietary technology to analyze how the market is doing right now, neighborhood by neighborhood, so clients can start each week with real-time, actionable intelligence. Altos was founded in 2006 by Mike Simonsen, a real estate analytics pioneer whose insights are regularly cited in national media such as Forbes, New York Times, Bloomberg BusinessWeek and the Wall Street Journal. Over the past 17 years, Altos has helped thousands of real estate professionals and many of the largest financial institutions in the world build their businesses through better understanding of the real estate market. Altos is now part of HousingWire, a tech-driven information services company that serves the housing industry.

    New launch! When HousingWire acquired Altos Research in 2022, several elements stood out. One of the most valuable? A proprietary dataset that tracks active listings for 99% of the U.S. housing market—over 110 million properties, updated weekly. It’s a unique, real-time view into housing supply that powers a wide range of insights and applications. Altos has long been known for its SaaS platform that helps agents, LOs, and title pros win more deals with powerful market reports and lead-nurture tools. But the best-kept secret? The data licensing business. That secret ends today. Introducing HousingWire Data. HousingWire Data helps industry leaders – investors, operators, hedge funds, valuation firms, homebuilders, proptechs, and lenders – make faster, smarter decisions. We’re relaunching the licensing business as HousingWire Data to better serve clients with deep insights into active inventory, ZIP code-level trends, pending sales, and rental markets. This launch also brings focus to each respective product line. Now Altos is entirely focused on the SaaS business and serving our users, and HousingWire Data is entirely focused on licensing and client success. I see this as a win-win-win. Amanda Luzsicza and Sonal Mandhyan are leading the charge – helping clients tap into this powerful dataset to drive innovation.
