Last Checked and Last Updated on every listing

Every home and plan now shows two dates, so you know how current it is before you share it.

  • Last Checked: when we last synced the builder’s feed or ran their import.
  • Last Updated: when something actually changed, like price, photos or status.

No recent update? That just means nothing changed.

Events in every market

Builder events now show in both portals: grand openings, model tours, broker lunches, realtor previews and CE classes.

Agents see events in their markets, and reps see their division’s. You can also browse them at newhomebuddy.com/events.

Events are for agents and reps, never shown to buyers. Builders: here’s how to list yours.

Coming next: Buyer Needs Requests

We previewed Buyer Needs Requests: send your buyer’s wish list straight to the builders you pick.

If you’re connected with a rep at that builder, the request goes to them. So agents, connect with your go-to reps now.

Buyer Needs Requests launched in December 2025. Read the guide or see the December update.
