Throughout the years, building product manufacturers have found immense value in our research and services. They rely on our forecasts for their business planning.

Consistently, we hear the following two themes as to why they trust our firm:

  • Unbiased. We are independent advisors. We do not recommend stock investments or take contigency fees, so it is clear we have no conflicting agendas.
  • Thoughtful. Our forecasts are rooted in our experience, our local knowledge of major housing markets across the United States, and our ongoing dialogue with our clients. We have learned to not just rely on industry data points to inform our decisions. We continue to improve our models and forecasts with new knowledge regularly.

Our clients outperform their competition because they have made educated strategic decisions.

Our research and consulting services enable our building product manufacturer clients to gauge housing market conditions and better align their supply chain and sales force. We also help them better understand home builder product purchasing decisions and construction timelines, giving them a highly informed view regarding future demand.
