Real estate information is a crucial part of the decision-making process in the finance and insurance industry. It is used in lending, risk modeling, claims management, compliance and portfolio management. At the same time, the complexity of how information needs to be collected and used is increasing.
Many actors face a double challenge: real estate data is necessary, but managing it is often costly.
Costs are driven not only by the purchase of data, but by the internal processes surrounding it - manual controls, parallel sources of information, lack of standardization and difficulties in integrating real estate information into digital flows. This means that in practice, real estate data can become an administrative burden rather than a strategic asset.
Looking ahead to 2026, thereis a clear trend for financial and insurance companies to review how real estate information can be managed more effectively, with a focus on:
- automation of information gathering
- higher data quality and traceability
- reducing manual handling
- better cost control in risk and decision-making processes
It is increasingly about optimizing information flows and finding uses that increase the value of the information, rather than just increasing the amount of data.
