Cap Rate Signals — US Real Estate Investment Intelligence
Identifies US real estate markets that are about to reprice upward, before consensus catches up. Tracks confirmed corporate investment — semiconductor fabs, pharma plants, defense campuses, data centers — and scores markets based on where workers are arriving but housing demand hasn't yet been priced in.
14 tools covering market discovery, investment briefs, head-to-head comparisons, regional comps, signal alerts, and map data. Data sourced live from a proprietary database monitoring 109 companies across 40+ US metros.
Use it to ask: Where should I invest right now? What's happening in Indianapolis? Show me semiconductor markets under $300K. What moved this week?
Requires a local install: run the server on your machine, then point your client at it.
