Pre-construction, explained.

Digital twins, follow-up, showrooms, floor plans, and how units sell before they exist.

Construction loan

How much does an extra month of a construction loan cost?

2026-09-08

On a typical boutique $10M–$15M construction loan at about 8%, monthly interest is about $67k–$100k. That is loan × rate ÷ 12. Extra months also burn marketing and ops. Three extra months on a $12M loan at 8% is $240k in interest before you add burn.

Digital twin

What is a digital twin for pre-construction?

2026-09-08

In pre-construction sales, a digital twin is the live building a buyer can walk on their phone before a brick is laid. Every unit. Live price. Live availability. Architects often mean a BIM model for the build. That is a different job.

Follow-up

What should follow-up look like after a pre-construction buyer shows interest?

2026-09-08

Follow-up is what happens after a buyer shows interest — the same night, not Monday. They should get the unit they looked at, not a generic pack. During the build they need that unit to still be there. Your sales team should already know which one before they call.

Presale

How many units do you need to pre-sell before a construction lender funds?

2026-09-08

US construction lenders commonly want 50–70% of project revenue under contract before they fund. Count dollars under contract, not a round unit count. Fannie Mae’s 50% conveyed / under-contract test is about unit-buyer mortgages — not the same as the construction draw.

Virtual showroom

What is a virtual showroom for pre-construction?

2026-09-08

A virtual showroom for pre-construction is the sales gallery on the website. Buyers walk floors and pick a unit from their phone with live price and availability. Follow-up runs so your sales team only calls people who are ready.

Floor plan

Interactive floor plan vs a PDF

2026-09-08

A PDF floor plan is a file. An interactive floor plan lets a buyer click a unit, see live availability and price, and leave a trail. Your sales team then calls people who already picked something — not people who only opened a file.

Sell-out

How to sell pre-construction condos faster

2026-09-08

Sell pre-construction condos faster by letting buyers pick a unit from their phone, running follow-up the same night, and giving your sales team the picture before they call. Extra months cost loan interest plus marketing burn — about $67k–$100k a month to the bank on a typical boutique loan.
