FOR CONSUMERS

How is Dôrbel different from other real estate listing sites?

While traditional real estate listing sites focus on pre-owned or existing homes, Dôrbel focuses on new construction. We provide access to information on recently constructed homes and communities and data on new developments that may not be available on other real estate sites. Our directory showcases builders in your area that offer semi-custom and fully custom homes.

How do I use Dôrbel to find a new construction home or community?

Although there are a few ways to search for information on the site, we recommend using the quiz to narrow your search results. Once you find a home or community you are interested in, please contact the builder or property directly using the information provided for the latest information on availability and pricing.

How do I contact a builder or community?

We made it easy to get in touch! On each builder profile or community that interests you, there will be contact information: website, email address, or phone number that you can use to reach out to them.

How does Dôrbel help me navigate new construction?

We are beside you all the way. Dôrbel helps you search for the right community and builder for your project. We provide educational resources to help you understand the unique aspects of purchasing a newly constructed home. Information on the types of construction, upgrades that increase your home's value, and step-by-step guides through the construction process provide the confidence needed to build your next home.

Can I buy a plan from the Dôrbel website?

If you want to use any of the plans listed in the Explore Plans section of the website for your next home construction project, please click on the link to the Builder or Architect’s web page for additional information. We do not sell the plans on the Dôrbel website. We offer links to the respective plan owners’ pages to describe the package, the restrictions, and purchase details.

FOR BUILDERS

Why should I list on Dôrbel?

Many real estate listing sites focus on pre-owned or existing homes, but far fewer focus on new construction. That is where Dôrbel comes in. We want consumers to consider new construction for their next home. By providing them with ways to search for new communities, plans, and builders all under one roof, as well as educational content, we inspire the confidence for them to reach out to builders and start their journey.

How is Dôrbel connected to Builders FirstSource?

As part of Builders FirstSource’s strategy to develop innovative digital technology, they partnered with Paradigm to develop Digital Tools for the home-building industry. Dôrbel is born from these efforts to bring value and support to our builder partners and consumers interested in new construction.
