Real estate, the bedrock of the American economy, is worth over 45 trillion dollars. Climate change has started to erode that foundation.
In an effort to keep up with the increasing risk of natural disasters, insurance companies are raising premiums at a rapid rate. In some places, properties are uninsurable.
When insurance premiums go up, property values go down.

We leverage the most advanced climate science and engineering approaches to quantify and communicate the risk for every property in the country. 

Who we are: First Street is the industry standard for physical climate risk data. We use transparent and peer-reviewed methodologies to calculate the past, present, and future climate risk for every property in the world. We started eight years ago by working with the world’s leading climate scientists to create groundbreaking, climate-adjusted, property specific models and haven’t stopped. Our mission: We exist to connect climate change to financial riskOur data: We create physics-based, deterministic models of flooding, wildfire and hurricanes, and advanced statistical models of extreme heat, air quality, drought, hail, severe convective storms, winter storms, and more. All of this data is used to create property-level financial risk metrics and macroeconomic variables to quantify the impacts of climate change. Our customers: We empower governments at the highest levels to make smart regulations, businesses to avoid bad investments, and everyday Americans to understand their personal risk from climate change. We are relied on every day by:<ul style=""><li>Agencies ranging from the U.S. Department of Treasury to Fannie Mae</li><li>The world's biggest banks such as Bank of America and Wells Fargo </li><li>Institutional investors like Nuveen and Blackstone </li><li>Millions of users on Redfin, <a href="http://Realtor.com">Realtor.com</a>, <a href="http://Homes.com">Homes.com</a>, and more </li></ul>We believe:  Our work needs to match the pace and scope of the climate problem.
