What if a buyer does not own a lot yet?+
Give them a clear feasibility path. We ask about areas, land under consideration, budget and the kind of home they want, then explain your process for reviewing the fit. They should not receive an invented fixed quote or be counted as construction-ready merely for submitting a form.
Should we publish completed-project price bands?+
Yes, when you can approve accurate context: the project date, scope, land and site conditions, included costs and exclusions. We can explain the factors behind a budget conversation when that evidence is unavailable. We avoid broad price-per-square-foot averages that imply a quote for a buyer's unknown lot and design.
How do you handle agent referrals and slow decisions?+
We preserve the original source and record each meaningful stage and next human contact. Agent resources remain separate from automatic lead acknowledgment. A preconstruction agreement is recorded separately from a construction contract. Paused, declined and unknown states stay visible so reporting does not turn a months-long conversation into assumed revenue.
What is included, and which channels can we use?+
The proposal separates the website from ongoing SEO, ads, portfolio production and CRM work; ongoing marketing has a six-month initial term. Google lists general contractor as a US Local Services category, but we check the builder's actual eligibility. We choose channels by intent and capacity, with no contract or ranking guarantee.
