Developers & Tiers

Where the land is coming from.

450 developer profiles, the Tier 1–3 database, and the one signal that moves before any of it — land being subdivided on the title register.

Honest limit: no week-on-week change yet

The tracker records a baseline of lots per locality and then reports what is new each week. At the last run, zero localities showed a measured increase — because the baseline had only just been established, not because nothing is happening.

The counts above are real. The week-on-week movement becomes meaningful after the next few runs, and it is not shown until it is.

Two different questions

Who releases land, and who you're bidding against.

A developer decides what gets built and when. A construction tier tells you the size of the outfit tendering beside you. They stay separate because mixing them makes both harder to use.

Tier 1
National builders — high-rise, major infrastructure, large commercial. You are rarely bidding against these on residential.
Tier 2
Substantial regional and state firms, mid-rise and volume residential.
Tier 3
Where most residential work sits — the tier that matters for nearly every job on this site.

Knowing the tier of whoever else is tendering changes how you price. A Tier 2 firm chasing a Tier 3 job is usually buying market share, and will be hard to beat on price for that one job — but rarely stays.

Why the cadastre beats an announcement

A new lot exists on the title register before it has a price, a name or a billboard. By the time an estate is advertised, anyone watching the register has had weeks of notice.

It also catches the quiet releases — a developer staging 40 lots doesn't issue a press release.

The signal

Land is subdivided on the register long before it is advertised.
