Before the Build

Home site reservations

Reserve the lot while the buyer is standing on it.

When a buyer picks a home site, Before The Build prints a reservation agreement with their names, the lot, the plan, and your deposit terms already filled in. The moment it’s saved, that lot reads reserved everywhere your team looks.

Sample data

What it does

Your deposit terms, as written

Set your reservation deposit and terms once. Every agreement prints with them exactly as your attorney wrote them, so nobody paraphrases a refund policy on a Saturday.

Prefilled from the buyer record

Names, contact details, the lot, block, acreage, and lot premium come from what your team already entered. Nothing is typed twice.

Reserved everywhere at once

The lot list, the quote builder, and every salesperson's screen show the lot as reserved as soon as it's saved. Two people can't promise the same corner lot.

A lot list the whole team trusts

Available, reserved, under contract, closed, and held, by community and phase. The same five colors on every screen, so a glance is enough.

Carries into the quote

The reservation starts the buyer's record. When you build the quote, the lot and its premium are already there.

Deposits paid online

Send the buyer a link to pay the reservation deposit online through Stripe. The payment shows on the reservation, so nobody chases a check.

No double-selling

One lot, one buyer, one status.

The costly mistake in a busy model home is two salespeople and one good lot. A shared spreadsheet only works if everyone refreshes it. In Before The Build the reservation is the status: save it, and the lot shows reserved for everyone.

Under contract, closed, and held sit on the same list, so it’s always the current answer to “what can I still sell?”
