CoreLogic helps property experts in Australia by turning large amounts of property data into useful insights and smoother processes. The company works with banks, brokers, insurers, and government to support their decisions across the property market.  

Since March 2025, CoreLogic in Australia has rebranded to Cotality. In this profile, both names refer to the same company. 

History of CoreLogic 

CoreLogic began in June 2010 when The First American Corporation split into two separate companies. Soon after, it expanded its reach by acquiring RP Data in Australia in 2011. This strengthened its presence in the local property market. 

The company’s roots go back to the late 1980s. It began as a small real estate data provider and grew through partnerships and mergers. Over time, it built a strong base in property analytics and risk management. 

In 2015, the firm continued to grow by acquiring Cordell, a well-known construction data business in Australia. The company’s growth attracted new owners, and in 2021, it was purchased by Stone Point Capital and Insight Partners. 

By March 2025, CoreLogic rebranded as Cotality to reflect its new direction and people-focused approach. This change marked a fresh chapter for the business in Australia. 

CoreLogic (now Cotality) products and services 

Their products range from real estate and construction to insurance, banking, finance, and government, covering the full property ecosystem. These solutions help many industries with property data, risk management, and workflow tools. 

For mortgage brokers, Cotality offers: 

  • automated valuation model (AVM): fast property value estimates for brokers 
  • customer engagement solutions: tools to connect and build broker-client relationships 
  • PropertyHub: digital platform for managing property data and workflow 
  • RP data: detailed property reports and market insights for brokers 

These offerings help brokers attract new clients, process approvals efficiently, and provide accurate advice throughout the home loan process. Specialised products support brokers in building strong relationships and delivering better service. 

Company culture and values 

CoreLogic brings together property experts, data scientists, and technologists who focus on making property decisions simpler and more unified. The team values innovation, resilience, and a supportive workplace that helps people thrive, offering staff a range of benefits: 

  • wellbeing leave: ten half-days each year for rest 
  • wellness allowance: US$400 for gym, apps, or ergonomic gear 
  • health programs: live sessions, tools, and flu shots 
  • flexible work: hybrid model and offices across Australia and New Zealand 
  • parental support: up to 16 weeks paid leave and US$500 Baby Bucks 
  • peer rewards: Bravo! program for staff recognition 
  • diversity and inclusion: active groups and events for all 
  • mental health support: 12 free therapy or coaching sessions yearly 
  • volunteering: social and community initiatives for staff 

In 2023, CoreLogic’s impact report stated that they provided camp scholarships for girls in science and ran Employee Resource Groups. Staff across multiple countries volunteered thousands of hours with hundreds of charities. 

Many offices met high environmental standards, and supplier diversity spend continued to grow each year. The company also created new learning programs and stood against discrimination through public commitments. 

About President – International Lisa Claes and key people 

Lisa Claes leads Cotality’s International division, overseeing teams in Australia, New Zealand, and the UK. Before joining the company, she held senior roles in law, banking, and digital transformation.  

Cotality’s leadership team brings deep experience and a clear vision for the property industry: 

  • Agrita Cliff is executive – general counsel and leads on legal, risk, and compliance for Australia, New Zealand, and the UK 
  • Lisa Jennings leads as VP of corporate business development, driving growth in banking, finance, insurance, and valuations 
  • Tim Lawless is executive – research director for Asia-Pacific, providing insights on housing and economic trends 
  • Sarah Edwards leads as VP for SME business development, shaping real estate and construction strategy for brokers and professionals 
  • Craig Dargusch serves as CTO, guiding digital innovation and enterprise technology strategy 
  • Ashley Davies acts as CFO – international, steering finance and operational resilience for the business 

Even with CoreLogic’s rebrand to Cotality, this team continues to support the company’s clients and partners. Their leadership ensures that the company remains a trusted name in property data and analytics. 

The future at CoreLogic (now Cotality) 

CoreLogic, now known as Cotality, reported that home values increased in April 2025, reaching a new national median high. Their analysis will help clients and industry professionals spot trends and understand changing market conditions. 

Cotality, with research from Head of Research Eliza Owen, also showed that building delays and market issues limit the value of new housing approvals. Their work helps clients and policymakers understand that more approvals alone will not fix the housing shortage. Such advice will support smarter planning and real progress for Australia’s housing needs.
