Build Radar finds the new houses being built in your county, with the owner's and the builder's phone numbers, the plans, and your bid ready to send. Your first 3 houses are free.

Imagery © EsriWe read the drawings of every plan set we have, not only the project description. Free, no sign-up: the count, the busiest areas and the price.
The typical one is a $360,000 project, and that money gets spent in the next few months. New construction only: no re-roofs, no remodels. Houses that need everything, from every trade, including yours.

Someone building a house is juggling a hundred decisions. Loans, inspections, crews that don't show up. The last thing they have time for is hunting down your trade. Build Radar tells you the moment they need you.








You're not a cold call. You're the answer to the problem they were about to have.
With the area plan, a project becomes yours alone when you claim it. From that moment no other contractor in your trade can claim it on Build Radar. The other trades still can. Your competition can't.

Order a 3D model and we build the house straight off the plans, measuring every part that matters to your trade. What used to take days now takes a click.

In Washington, King and Snohomish are split into smaller areas, most others are one county, and some small counties share an area. Florida's areas are for sale too. Oregon opens soon.
Every area's price is on the map in the app. Under 50 projects, an area is not sold yet, and we tell you when it opens. Start free and see your area's price →
One way to use Build Radar: look first, free. When you want the whole area, you pay one monthly price for that area. The price depends on how busy the area is.
Look first. No card.
Every project in your area.
First month back: ask within 30 days of your first payment and we refund it in full. One refund per business. Your area then closes. Not for accounts closed for fraud or reselling our data. While it covers your first area, that area's free 3D models start with your second month, and in your first 30 days you can open the phone numbers of up to 25 projects a day. The guarantee in full →

Put your areas in price order, highest first. Each one gets the discount of its place. The app takes it off by itself when you add an area, and that price stays while you keep the area. The order you buy in never changes the total. An added area bills on the same day as your other areas: its first charge is only the days until then.
| Area | Discount |
|---|---|
| 1st area | Full price |
| 2nd area | 15% off |
| 3rd area | 30% off |
| 4th and 5th area | 50% off |
| 6th area and on | 75% off |
Example: Whatcom ($750) + Skagit ($500) + San Juan ($500) + Island ($300) = $1,675 a month, not $2,050. The whole state, all 30 Washington areas: $6,562.50 a month, with the first month 30% off. Pay 12 months ahead for 10% more off. For the whole state, or 6 areas or more on one bill, call us.
Each area is its own plan at its own price, per month, plus sales tax where it applies. Two areas? Their claims and 3D models add up. Once you're paying, your price stays while you keep paying, even when the area gets busier. Your area's price is on the map: start free and see it →
3 real houses, with the address and the phone numbers. Pick up to 3 houses, or tap your county and we pick the 3 nearest. The map stays, with each county's numbers and price. No card.
New construction only: new houses, townhomes and new buildings. No re-roofs, remodels or decks, and nothing that's already finished.
Not every one. More than ten thousand have a phone number on file, and thousands have plans on file, which we use to build your 3D model and bid. The plan set itself isn't shared: it's the designer's copyright. When something is missing, the card says so.
Yes, until someone in your trade claims it. With the area plan you can claim projects in your area, a number each week set by the area's price. A claimed project is yours alone in your trade.
By how busy the area is: how many projects are in progress on its map. 1,000 or more: $1,000 a month. 500 to 999: $750. 300 to 499: $500. 150 to 299: $300. 50 to 149: $150. Under 50, the area is not sold yet, and we tell you when it opens. We count again every month.
Yes, in the app. Your area stays open to the end of the month you paid for.
Cancel any time in the app. And for your first area plan: First month back: ask within 30 days of your first payment and we refund it in full. One refund per business. Your area then closes. Not for accounts closed for fraud or reselling our data. The guarantee in full →
Yes. Your free account is also a free app for your business: customers, bids, e-signatures and getting paid, in English and Spanish. It costs nothing. The paid parts are the area plan and 3D models from your plans.
We read each project's stage from the county's inspection records, where the county publishes them, and place it on the build ladder, from site work to finishing. Filter by stage and you see only the houses that are ready for your trade.
No other contractor in your trade can claim that project on Build Radar after you. Other trades still can. Claim it and it leaves their lists — though they may have called already.
Projects are for all 19 trades. 3D bids are ready for 7 today: metal roofing; composition roofing; siding; painting; hardwood, tile & stone; carpet & vinyl; and electrical. More are coming.
Yes. Build Radar runs in the browser on a phone, tablet or computer, and you can add it to your home screen like an app.
The map stays, with your 3 houses on it. Tap any county to see what is in it and its price. Your 3 free houses stay open for good, and so does your account. When you want the whole area, start the area plan for your county. Claiming comes with the area plan.
The free look opens 3 houses in full. The other projects in your county stay hidden until you start its area plan. The area plan opens every project in the area: the address, the phone numbers and the timing.
No. Once you're paying, your price stays the same as long as you keep paying. If you cancel and come back later, you pay the area's price at that time.
Prices don't include sales tax. Where sales tax applies, it's added on top at checkout, based on your billing address, and you see it before you pay.
Yes. Each area is its own plan at its own price. Their claims and free 3D models add up.
No text alerts. With the area plan you get new projects in your email each morning there are new ones: the ones that just showed up in your area and the ones that just reached your trade's stage. You pick the stages.
Washington and Florida today. Oregon opens soon.
Your area stays open to the end of the month you paid for, then it locks. Your 3 free houses stay open. Projects you claimed in that area go back to the pool a week after it locks.
