Every buyer asks the same question. Your answer is the one they trust least.
Not because they think you are lying. Because you are the party with an interest in the answer, and they know it. An independent record of the same facts does the convincing that your own progress updates cannot.
A record its subject can change is worth nothing to the buyer it is meant to convince. That is the whole mechanism, and it is why the page is on our domain rather than yours.
The doubt is priced into every deal you lose.
A buyer looking at an off-plan unit abroad is weighing one risk above the others: that the building will not be finished when you say, and that they will find out too late to do anything about it. They rarely say this out loud. They go quiet instead, or they ask for a discount that has nothing to do with the property.
Nothing you publish yourself resolves it. Renders, drone footage, a progress bar on your own site. All of it comes from you, and the buyer discounts all of it by exactly the amount they discount anything from a seller.
A record they can check, from somebody who does not work for you.
A specialist visits your site on a fixed interval and records what is built, with photographs and dates. It is published on a page for your unit on our domain, open to anyone, with no sign-in.
That page answers the search a buyer actually makes, the name of your project plus the words 'construction status', and it answers it with something neither of you can edit after the fact.
The mark does the work, not the reading.
Buyers do not read the reports. They see that the reports exist, that they are regular, and that they are not yours. That is what removes the objection, which is why this is sold as a mark on your own site linking to the page here, not as a document you forward.
It costs your sales team a sentence: the progress is recorded independently, here is the page. The buyer clicks once, sees dated photographs and a history that goes back months, and stops asking.
What goes on the page, and what never does
This is the section developers ask us to change, and not changing it is the product. Both columns matter: what is missing is what makes the rest believable.
What is built, visit by visit
Dated, with photographs. The history stays up, including the visits that went badly.
How the completion date has moved
A date that has moved three times says more than any single date. It is on the page.
Your buyers' contracts
We do not have them. Instalments, prices and payment schedules belong to the buyer.
Buyers' own reports
There is no connection between the two: not a permission we withhold, but a link that does not exist in the system at all.
An opinion on whether to buy
We record what is there. Advice would make us a party to your sale, which defeats it.
This is not advertising, and that is the entire value.
We are paid to visit and record, not to produce a favourable page. The reports go up whether a stage was hit or missed, and the history of missed ones stays visible. A developer who wants a page that only shows good months is buying the wrong thing, and it would not work anyway. A record with nothing bad in it reads as marketing to every buyer who sees it.
You cannot edit the page and neither can your sales team. What you can do is stop commissioning visits, at which point the page stops updating and says so.
What it costs
Priced per unit rather than per unit, and we would rather quote you than print a number that turns out to be wrong for your site.
- How many buildings, and whether they are on one site or several
- How often a visit makes sense: monthly on an active site, quarterly on a slow one
- Which market, because contractor rates and travel differ
The buyer product has a published price list and this one does not yet. Rather than derive a figure from a different product, we will give you one for yours.
Tell us about the site
The three things the figure turns on are on this page above: which market, how many buildings, and how often somebody should be there. Answer them and a coordinator comes back with a price for your site.
