Before you start searching for construction leads in BuildCentral, it’s important to identify areas that have been rezoned from single-family to multifamily or mixed-use. This information can usually be found on the website of your local zoning authority or planning department. You can also consult with a local real estate agent or developer to get more insights on which areas are being rezoned. Read our blog on How to Find Single-Family Developers.

Once you’ve identified the rezoned areas, you can use BuildCentral to search for construction leads within those areas. To find projects that involve rezoning on BuildCentral, simply enter “rezoning” as a keyword in your project search. Some of the search criteria you can use include the location, project type and developer name. By narrowing your search to specific rezoned areas, you can focus your efforts on finding leads that are more likely to result in contracts.

It’s worth noting that construction leads in rezoned single-family areas may be more competitive than leads in other areas. As such, it’s important to act quickly and have a solid plan in place for reaching out to developers and securing contracts. This may involve developing a strong proposal, offering competitive pricing and demonstrating your experience and expertise in multifamily and mixed-use development construction.

Analyzing Construction Leads

Once you’ve found developers or projects with promising construction leads, it’s important to analyze them carefully to determine which ones are worth pursuing further. Read our blog on How to Find New Multifamily Construction Projects Out for Bid. Here are some factors to consider when analyzing construction leads:

1. Project Size: Look at the size of the project and assess whether it aligns with your capabilities and resources. You should also consider whether the project size is likely to result in a profitable contract for your business.

2. Budget: Consider the budget allocated for the project and whether it’s within your range. This can help you determine if you can deliver the project within the given budget and still make a profit.

3. Project Type: Consider the type of project, such as multifamily or mixed-use, and whether you have the necessary expertise and experience to complete it successfully.

4. Project Timeline: Look at the project timeline and see if you can finish the project within the given timeframe.

5. Competition: Consider the level of competition for the project and whether it’s worth investing your time and resources.

By analyzing these factors, you can determine which construction leads are worth pursuing further and which ones you should pass on. Remember to stay objective and evaluate each lead based on its potential for profitability and growth for your business.

Analyzing construction leads is a critical step in the process of finding and securing contracts for multifamily and mixed-use development projects in rezoned single-family areas. By carefully considering key factors such as project size, budget, project type, timeline and competition, you can make informed decisions.
