Business Editors

SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 4, 2000

COMPS.COM Inc. (Nasdaq:CDOT), a leading national commercial real estate information provider, has released COMPSCapital, a lender referral service designed to streamline the process of locating financing for commercial property. Among the various lenders participating on the service are Heller Financial, LaSalle Bank, and Washington Mutual.

Using COMPSCapital, borrowers or their agents can save time by using an e-commerce platform to access an accurate and comprehensive database of lenders. COMPSCapital provides real-time access to the lenders' current loan programs and pricing guidelines. Competitive pricing and greater loan proceeds are two of the many benefits to this method of searching for financing.

COMPSCapital allows borrowers or their agents to quickly search for loan programs that match specific requirements, compare and select the best available programs, and then submit a loan request -- all in an easy-to-use online environment.

The service also benefits lenders who receive only those requests which meet their current lending criteria and can easily qualify loan requests as they are submitted. Loan requests are submitted using a uniform, easy-to-use electronic form so loan processing and response time are dramatically reduced compared to conventional methods. Because the service ties into the COMPS.COM listing service and sale notification service, COMPSCapital also provides lenders with a channel of new loan opportunities.

COMPSCapital combines the strength of COMPS.COM's extensive database of property information with its Internet technology to deliver an efficient and effective transaction link between borrowers or their agents and active lenders.

COMPS has entered into a merger agreement with CoStar Group Inc. Following the closing of the merger, which is currently scheduled to occur on Feb. 10, 2000, COMPSCapital will offer the lending community access to CoStar's and COMPS' combined databases and participating user community, supported by more than 700 professional researchers and lenders who will be able to market &uot;soft quotes&uot; on CoStar's for-sale properties.
