New Home Building Leads for Contractors: No Annual Fee, No Contract

Updated October 27, 2026 | For contractors and home service pros

New home building is the highest-ticket trade on ProMatch, and the sales cycle is long. ProMatch emails new home quote requests to local builders as soon as they are submitted, with an exclusive option for builders who want the homeowner to themselves.

What homeowners ask custom home builders and residential builders for

Homeowners describe their own project when they submit a request, so the mix varies by area. Common new home building requests include:

• Custom home construction
• Spec and production home builds
• Lot clearing and site prep
• Design-build and plan review
• Tear-down and rebuild projects

How new home building leads work on ProMatch

1. Apply free. Select New Home Building and any other trades you offer. Choose a center ZIP code with a radius from 10 to 100 miles, or enter a specific list of ZIP codes.
2. Fund your balance. Start a monthly membership with $50 or $100 in lead credits added each month, or buy one-time credit packages. You can cancel a membership online.
3. Get the lead by email. When a homeowner in your area requests new home building work, you receive their name, phone, email, project type, ZIP and timeline right away.
4. Pay only on delivery. The lead price is deducted from your balance when the lead is delivered. When the balance runs out, deliveries pause. You are never billed beyond what you funded.

How to win more new home building leads

• Ask whether the homeowner owns land, has plans and has financing lined up.
• Offer an introductory call before a site visit. The sales cycle is long and trust matters.
• Explain your process, allowances and how change orders work.
• Follow up over weeks, not days.

Shared or exclusive for new home building?

High-ticket trade. Because jobs in this trade tend to be large, one extra signed project can cover the cost of many leads. That is the situation where exclusive leads are most worth testing: you pay more per lead, but you are not racing other contractors to the first conversation.

The simple rule: exclusive wins on cost per booked job when the exclusive price divided by the shared price is less than your exclusive close rate divided by your shared close rate. For example, with made-up numbers: if an exclusive lead costs three times a shared lead, you need to close more than three times as often on exclusive leads to come out ahead. Read the full guide: exclusive vs shared leads for contractors.

Because one signed build can be worth far more than the cost of a lead, exclusive leads are often worth considering here. See the exclusive versus shared guide for the break-even math.

How ProMatch compares to the big platforms

ProMatch has no annual membership, caps shared leads at three contractors and publishes its prices. The FTC reported that HomeAdvisor members generally paid an annual membership of about $288 on top of a fee per lead (FTC). We wrote a plain comparison, including where Angi may still fit better: ProMatch vs Angi and HomeAdvisor. We are a newer network, so lead volume depends on your trade and area. Start with a small balance and track what you book.

What do new home building leads cost?

Lead prices are published by trade on the signup page.

Does ProMatch guarantee new home building jobs?
