Build Premier Homes
Without the Back-Office Chaos.
Stop losing 25+ hours a week chasing subcontractor bids, tracking client tile and appliance selections, writing change orders in truck cabs, and hunting down missing unconditional lien waivers. From BuilderTrend and CoConstruct project administration to Bluebeam plan takeoffs, trade partner coordination, and warranty dispatch. Supervised by a Dedicated Project Manager at $0 extra charge.
Dedicated Project Manager Model
Custom home builders create value on the jobsite—inspecting framing tolerances, managing trade crews, and walking clients through milestones—not sitting in an office typing change orders, organizing RFI logs, or auditing drywall invoices. You coordinate with one dedicated project lead who enforces strict construction administrative SOPs.
- Subcontractor Bid Leveling: Sending RFP bid packages, logging trade estimates, and building side-by-side comparative spreadsheets.
- Client Selection Management: Tracking allowances, lead times, and signoffs for plumbing fixtures, tile, countertops, and appliances in BuilderTrend.
- Change Orders & Lien Waivers: Drafting price quotes, routing DocuSign approvals before work starts, and collecting sub lien releases before draw disbursements.
- $0 Fee for Supervision: 100% of your invoice goes strictly to actual productive construction support and project coordination hours worked.

What Your SageDoer Custom Builder VA Handles
Custom home building requires high-touch client communication, rigorous budget controls, and seamless subcontractor scheduling. Our managed assistants run your back-office and pre-construction pipeline with general-contractor-grade accuracy.
Subcontractor Bid Leveling & RFPs
Eliminate scope gaps and pricing surprises before signing foundation, framing, and mechanical contracts.
- Sending detailed bid packages (plans, scopes of work, finish specs) to trade partners
- Building side-by-side bid comparison sheets across electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and framing
- Nudging trade contractors to ensure all estimates are submitted before bidding cutoffs
- Verifying trade worker’s comp and general liability COIs before issuing project contracts
Finish Selections & Allowance Auditing
Keep custom homeowners on schedule without holding up rough-in inspections or trim carpenters.
- Populating selection choices in BuilderTrend/CoConstruct (tile, cabinetry, hardware, paint)
- Calculating allowance overage differentials and notifying homeowners for instant signoff
- Tracking manufacturer delivery lead times for custom windows, doors, and specialty fixtures
- Sending friendly milestone selection deadlines so tile setters never arrive to empty jobsites
Change Order Drafting & Signoffs
Stop performing free unapproved work on verbal site requests. Get paid for every architectural adjustment.
- Converting site superintendent change memos into formal priced change orders
- Compiling material cost deltas, sub labor variances, and general contractor markups
- Routing electronic signature packets via BuilderTrend, CoConstruct, or DocuSign
- Updating the master job budget and bank draw request sheets upon execution
Permit Expediting & Inspection Tracking
Avoid construction stalls by monitoring municipal plan check reviews and scheduling inspections.
- Monitoring city and county building portal plan reviews for reviewer comments and redlines
- Coordinating resubmission files between structural engineers, architects, and plan examiners
- Scheduling municipal inspections (footing, open wall framing, 4-way MEP, insulation, final)
- Logging inspector signoff cards and Certificate of Occupancy (CO) prerequisite records
Lien Waiver Auditing & Draw Preparation
Protect your title chain and keep bank construction draw disbursements flowing smoothly.
- Collecting conditional and unconditional lien waivers prior to sub check release
- 3-way matching sub invoices against original purchase orders and superintendent approvals
- Assembling bank draw packages (invoices, AIA G702/G703 forms, site progress photos)
- Tracking retainage holdbacks and preparing final closeout releases for lenders
Punch-List Tracking & 1-Year Warranty Care
Deliver a world-class home handover experience and manage post-move-in warranty calls effortlessly.
- Logging walk-through punch items with photos and room tags in PlanGrid or BuilderTrend
- Assigning punch tasks directly to responsible trade contractors with completion deadlines
- Triaging 30-day and 11-month homeowner warranty requests (drywall pops, grout, HVAC)
- Gathering appliance manuals, warranty registration numbers, and digital turnover binders

Trusted by Luxury Custom Builders & General Contractors Nationwide
Here is how SageDoer helps custom home builders eliminate unbilled change orders, accelerate bank draw approvals, and keep trade schedules on track.
"We build 6 to 8 custom homes a year in the $2M–$5M range. Client selection delays and untracked change orders were killing our margins. Our SageDoer VA took over BuilderTrend selections, allowance overages, and DocuSign change orders. In our first project alone, we recovered $32,000 in unbilled modifications."
"Subcontractor bid leveling used to take me entire weekends. My assistant packages plan files, sends RFPs to our framing, plumbing, and electrical trades, and builds a clean comparative spreadsheet in Excel. I make trade award decisions in 30 minutes instead of 10 hours."
"Our bank construction draws kept getting delayed because subcontractors wouldn't turn in their unconditional lien waivers. Our VA audits invoices before payment release and tracks waiver receipts like clockwork. Our lender draw turnarounds went from 14 days to under 48 hours."
"Hiring an experienced construction project coordinator locally in Colorado was going to cost $70,000/year plus healthcare and taxes. SageDoer provided an experienced construction VA at $960 a month who runs CoConstruct, manages our municipal permit logs, and tracks warranty tickets flawlessly."
