Become a New-Construction Expert: Builders Update Launches New Training Program for Real Estate Agents

The new-construction market is growing rapidly, and today’s buyers expect their agents to understand the unique process, timelines, options, and complexities that come with purchasing a newly built home. To help real estate professionals meet these expectations, Builders Update is launching a new training program specifically designed to equip agents with the skills and knowledge needed to confidently guide clients through the new-home buying journey.
This program is meant to enhance agent professionalism and supports brokers, MLS organizations, and builders by helping agents become more knowledgeable, capable, and effective.
Why This Training Matters
New-construction transactions involve details that many traditional resale agents are not exposed to. From understanding lot releases to navigating builder contracts, from explaining upgrade options to managing timelines, there is a learning curve that can impact both the client experience and the agent’s success.
The Builders Update training program helps agents:
- Understand the full new-construction process
- Communicate more effectively with buyers interested in new homes
- Work more smoothly with builders and builder representatives
- Recognize community-level differences and inventory nuances
- Use tools within Builders Update to assist clients and builders
- Earn the confidence of buyers by positioning themselves as knowledgeable, trusted advisors
This program was created by industry professionals for industry professionals, with the goal of elevating agent expertise across the new-construction segment.
Live Training Seminars Available 4 times a day
To help agents get started quickly, Builders Update also offers live training seminars everyday. These sessions walk agents through the platform and teach them how to apply what they learn directly to real client situations.
Agents can register for any of the upcoming sessions using the official link below:
