Lot Absorption Rate: How to Measure It and What Moves It
Absorption is the number every land deal is underwritten on, and the one most teams calculate loosely. How to measure it honestly, and what actually moves it.
LOT INVENTORY MAP
One inventory. Every surface.
The map buyers see, the table screen readers read, the pipeline your team works and the embed on your website all read the same record. Change a status once; nothing drifts.

MAP + LOT TABLE
Every map ships with its accessible twin
A real lot table publishes alongside the 3D viewer — same data, same live statuses, fully keyboard- and screen-reader-operable. It satisfies WCAG 2.1 AA and doubles as the fastest way to scan inventory.
WHAT'S INCLUDED
No stale inventory
The failure mode of a PDF site plan is quiet and expensive: it goes out of date.
-
Instant status changes
Flip a lot in the admin panel and every embed updates in seconds — no redeploy, no emailing a new PDF.
-
Reservations tracked
Reserved and under contract are first-class states, with the buyer, the date and the agent attached.
-
Absorption you can see
Watch a phase sell through by status color, and export the numbers when your lender asks.
-
One source of truth
The public map, the lot table and the CRM read the same record — so two buyers cannot be sold the same lot.

A 40-acre tract and a 0.3-acre lot sell to different buyers asking different questions. The subdivision playbook quietly loses the acreage buyer.
QUESTIONS
Lot inventory map questions
Can our sales team update statuses themselves?
Yes — that is the point. Role-based access lets sales flip statuses from a phone while admin keeps control of pricing and finance.
Can we import our existing lot list?
Yes. A spreadsheet of lot numbers, sizes and statuses imports at setup, and the plat import fills in the geometry.
Do you show prices?
Only if you want to. Many builders publish “price on request” and keep numbers in the CRM; both are supported per community and per lot.
