How Our Database is Updated

At Buildify, we strive to maintain the most accurate and up-to-date information on pre-construction homes. Our database is continuously updated to reflect the latest developments, but the frequency of updates can vary depending on several factors, including the construction status of a project and the technology used by developers. Here's an overview of our update process:

Tech-Enabled Developers

  • Daily Updates: For developers with advanced technology and portals, we can retrieve and update information on a daily basis. These automated systems allow for real-time data integration, ensuring the most current details are available.

Traditional Builders

  • Manual Updates: For builders who provide information through Google Sheets, PDFs, or other manual methods, our team digitalizes this data to update our database. The frequency of these updates depends on how often we receive new information from the builders.
  • Non-Responsive Builders: Some builders are less responsive or slower to provide updates. In these cases, our dedicated team makes phone calls and visits sales centers to gather the latest information.

Construction Status and Update Frequency

  • Pre-Construction: Projects in the pre-construction phase are typically updated on a daily basis, as this is a period of frequent changes and new information.
  • Under Construction: During the construction phase, updates may occur less frequently. Builders often hold off on releasing new units until significant milestones are reached. Updates in this phase can range from weekly to several months, depending on the release of incentives or new units.
  • Completion: Once a project is complete, updates occur as the last units are released. This can vary greatly, with some builders waiting to release final units until all incentives and promotional activities are finalized.

Overall Update Frequency

Our database is refreshed on an hourly basis to ensure overall data integrity. However, the update frequency for individual projects depends largely on their construction status and the responsiveness of the developers.

Data Sourcing and Verification

We source our data directly from builders to ensure its accuracy and reliability. While we strive to provide the most accurate information, our data should be used as a point of reference. For the most up-to-date and precise details, we provide the contact information of the builder or sales representatives so you can confirm directly with them.
