    What It's About

    Land development and site selection decisions set the pace, and the profit, of every project. This session explores how builders are using AI and instant site intelligence to make smarter, faster calls on land selection, design optionality, feasibility, and permitting—without weeks of manual research or “boots on the ground” guesswork. Through real builder case study from LA Rebuild | Brookfield Residential, you’ll see how their team used these tools to evaluate design options against local requirements and bring design options to the public impacted by the January 2025 wildfires instantly. The result: clearer pathways to buildable outcomes, fewer dead ends and bottlenecks, reduced risk, faster approvals, and improved handoffs between land, design, permitting, and sales teams.

    What You’ll Learn

    • Identify bottlenecks in traditional land planning and site selection workflows and how they impact project timelines and margins.
    • Learn how AI tools can instantly evaluate site feasibility and regulatory fit reducing the need for time-consuming manual research.
    • Understand how sales, design, and permitting workflows can be integrated into a single digital experience to improve client satisfaction and reduce handoff errors.
    • Explore how a digital approach can surface compliant build options in real time, helping teams communicate clearer buildable pathways to customers and communities.
