what changed
according to the developer dim, in 2021 62% of deals happened at early construction stages, and in 2025 only 18%. instead, 77% of purchases are in buildings more than 60% complete. the buyer checks the developer's reputation, documents and the logic of the project, and takes 67 days on average to decide.
the conclusion is simple: if your building is already highly complete, the site should show it as prominently as the price. if it's at an early stage, trust has to be built especially carefully.
how to show construction progress
- regularly and with dates. a last update from six months ago works worse than none.
- real photos and video from the site, not renders. a render shows the dream, a photo proves it's being built.
- the completion percentage and the next stage with an approximate date.
- documents right next to it: permits, land rights, who builds.
- an admin panel, so a manager can add construction news without a developer.
real photos beat renders
in the mono case we showed real houses from the community instead of renders and gathered the permits on one page. real photos remove the fear of «does this even exist» before the call.

construction progress works as proof, so it should come after the person understands the product and has seen floor plans and prices, and before the request. that way it removes the last doubt before deciding to leave contact details.
