Market-Proof Your Business for Resilience in Uncertain Times
By Emma Jane Wildermuth President, Shinn Group
Predictions for the 2025 housing market run the gamut, from economic turbulence and labor shortages, to project expansion and revenue growth. One thing is certain: the housing market is full of uncertainty. Now more than ever, home builders need to focus on strategies that help them market-proof their businesses.
Home building companies that are prepared for multiple outcomes have a better chance for survival. To quote Emma Shinn, “External outcomes are generally out of a home builder’s direct control, but how they respond is entirely in their control, and the speed in which they implement changes to adapt their business strategies, policies and procedures determines their success or failure.”
The good news is private home builders are generally more nimble and able to pivot when the market shifts which gives them a competitive edge.
This is a capstone event packed with inspiration, expertise, and lasting change.

One Mismanaged Project Can Damage a Home Builder’s Reputation
By Ed Hauck Senior Consultant, Shinn Group
The impact construction managers have on a home builder’s reputation cannot be overstated. They are the primary link between project planning and execution. Construction managers are responsible for ensuring that homes are built on time, within budget, and to the highest quality standards. Any mismanagement (in scheduling, cost control, or communication) can lead to delays, cost overruns, and poor quality which can tarnish a builder’s reputation.
