Our team builds roughly 40 homes per year. At any given time, we have 10 homes in permitting, 10 homes under construction, 10 homes for sale and 10 homes under contract for purchase.
Below are a few key ideas that have allowed us to scale up larger than a few homes per year:
1) Software: We use centralized software that contains a checklist that each new home roughly follows. Our in house checklist is about 300 items in basic order. It’s not perfect, but helps us continue looking 2-3 weeks/months down the road.
2) Rhythm: We maintain a weekly meeting rhythm for ordering, scheduling and troubleshooting site construction problems. This allows us to gut check where each project is and where it will be, and who needs to do what. Very important.
3) Redundancy: We have back up subcontractors in every major category. Each subcontractor has their own capacity and sometimes they are limited. Maintaining good relations with back ups allows you to continue to move your projects forward.
