AUSTIN RESEARCH PORTAL · FOR AGENTS & RESEARCHERS
Austin Research Portal. Market signals, trends and development data.
For agents and researchers: layer public records and market statistics on one map, read region reports with every source dated, and test which signals have actually led prices.
Early access: the research tools are open to the brokerage team. Public and client views are coming.

ACCESS LEVELS
Public, client or team.
Every research request is checked on the server, so each level only receives what it may see. No level ever receives individual MLS listings from the research portal.
| Level | Who | What you can use | How to get it |
|---|---|---|---|
| PublicComing soon | Anyone, signed in or not. | Public-record signals — permits, flood, schools, zoning, census and economy — on the research map, region reports, signal explorer, property lookup and data catalog. CSV and PDF exports of public values. No MLS statistics, no backtests, no team-only map layers. | Nothing to do once the public research portal is open. |
| ClientComing soon | Brokerage clients with approved private-workspace access. | Everything public, plus MLS market statistics as attributed aggregates — never individual listings. Exports stay public-only; no backtests or team tools. | Complete the client workspace steps (an existing broker-consumer relationship and broker approval). Client workspace → |
| TeamOpen now | Licensed agents and brokers who hold an MLS data licence. | Everything: all map layers, model lab and backtests, MLS CSV export, market explorer and CMA tools, branded with your own name and logo. Your work is private to you. Row-level MLS data never leaves the server, even for the team. | Verify your email here, then request access with your brokerage, TREC licence and MLS data licence. The administrator grants it. Ask your broker → |
