The delicate dance between selling your current home and closing on a new build has left countless homebuyers stressed, deposits lost, and dreams shattered. Today we're diving deep into BuilderCPO, a revolutionary solution that's changing the game for both buyers and builders alike.
What if you could unlock the equity from your existing home within just 14 days of pressing a button? That's exactly what BuilderCPO offers, removing the stress and uncertainty from one of life's most significant transitions. For builders, this means greater certainty and fewer canceled contracts—a serious concern as cancellations have doubled compared to recent years.
We explore the fascinating statistics behind the current new construction landscape, where approximately 1.5 million housing starts in 2023 represented an 8.54% decline from the previous year. With mortgage rates hovering around 7% and tariffs increasing material costs, the timing couldn't be better for innovative solutions like BuilderCPO.
The podcast takes you behind the curtain with a revealing look at how top real estate professionals are adapting to changing market conditions. You'll hear real-world examples of how the program works, including the critical "Certificate of Occupancy moment" when builders finally know with 95% certainty when a home will be ready—typically just 14 days before completion.
We also address the practical concerns of buyers like Samantha, who's worried about selling too early and being homeless or selling too late and losing her dream home. With flexible leaseback options and the ability to access equity quickly, BuilderCPO creates a smooth path forward for new construction buyers.
Whether you're considering building your dream home, selling your current property, or you're a builder looking to reduce cancellations, this episode provides invaluable insights into navigating today's complex real estate landscape.

Wondering why your relationships—and real estate decisions—follow predictable patterns? This eye-opening conversation between Rowena Patton and attachment expert Chris Evanson reveals how your attachment style (secure, anxious, avoidant, or disorganized) fundamentally shapes your biggest life choices.
The statistics are shocking: secure attachment has plummeted from 75% in the 1950s to just 40% today. This decline creates ripple effects not only in our personal relationships but directly impacts our approach to buying and selling property. Evanson breaks down each attachment style with remarkable clarity, explaining how anxious types (who trust everyone but themselves) and avoidants (who trust only themselves) navigate differently through both emotional and financial commitments.
For real estate decisions specifically, these patterns manifest in profound ways. Anxious types might rush into purchases seeking validation, while avoidants might suddenly abandon transactions when commitment feels too threatening. As Evanson bluntly states, "You cannot rely on a dismissive avoidant for anything"—a critical insight when making major financial decisions together.
Beyond theory, this episode offers practical strategies for recognizing and improving your attachment style. The good news? With awareness and targeted action, you can shift your patterns in as little as 3-6 months. Whether you're navigating a relationship, considering a real estate purchase, or wondering why previous partnerships dissolved, understanding these fundamental psychological patterns provides powerful tools for better outcomes.
Ready to transform your approach to both relationships and real estate? Listen now and discover which attachment style drives your decisions—and how to create healthier patterns for lasting success in love and property.
