The expansion of the real estate sector is expected to drive the growth of the property condition assessment market in the coming years. The real estate sector encompasses the development, purchase, sale, and leasing of residential, commercial, and industrial properties. This sector’s growth is mainly fueled by increasing urbanization and population rise, as more people moving to cities boosts demand for residential, commercial, and infrastructure projects. As the real estate sector grows, the number of property transactions and developments increases, creating a higher demand for condition assessments to ensure safety, regulatory compliance, and investment reliability. For example, in June 2025, according to the U.S. Census Bureau, a US-based government agency, the seasonally adjusted estimate of new houses for sale at the end of May 2025 was 507,000, marking a 1.4 percent increase (±1.3 percent) from the April 2025 estimate of 500,000 and an 8.1 percent rise (±5.5 percent) compared to the May 2024 estimate of 469,000. Consequently, the growth of the real estate sector is supporting the expansion of the property condition assessment market.

Leading companies in the property condition assessment sector are increasingly adopting innovative technologies, including AI-driven solutions, to improve accuracy, efficiency, and predictive insights in building evaluations. AI-driven solutions involve technologies that utilize artificial intelligence algorithms to process data, detect patterns, and make informed decisions with minimal human input, enabling property condition assessments to achieve more precise inspections, shorter evaluation times, and predictive insights for proactive maintenance and cost optimization. For example, in September 2023, Cape Analytics GmbH, a Germany-based software company, introduced an AI-powered automated property condition report (aPCR) that delivers instant, data-driven insights on property conditions using aerial imagery and computer vision. The aPCR applies machine learning and geospatial data to objectively evaluate external property conditions at scale, identifying elements such as roof damage, swimming pools, solar panels, and proximity to noise sources. This approach improves the speed and accuracy of property assessments, facilitates proactive maintenance planning, and reduces reliance on labor-intensive human inspections, thereby streamlining decision-making for lenders, investors, and real estate professionals.
