"Fire survivors can now access a portal with vetted residential templates designed to speed rebuilding and reduce costs, with homes potentially ready by 2026. A Builders Alliance of 10 licensed developers aims to lower construction expenses through shared procurement and efficiency gains, offering homeowners quality homes at competitive prices. The AI-powered portal maps fire-damaged properties and filters home options by square footage, bedrooms, bathrooms and price, allowing homeowners to compare builder bids."
"People who lost homes in the Palisades and Eaton fires can now go online to pick vetted residential templates that could save them money and be ready as early as next year. Builders Alliance, a nonprofit organization formed in response to the fires, on Friday launched a portal that offers survivors a selection of homes, filtered by lot size, price range and other preferences."
"Project Recovery's March report - which was compiled by professors in the real estate graduate schools at USC and UCLA, along with the Los Angeles chapter of the Urban Land Institute, a real estate nonprofit education and research institute - said an alliance of builders could work together for economies of scale to speed up reconstruction and make it more affordable and predictable."
An AI-powered portal enables fire survivors to select vetted residential templates filtered by lot size, square footage, bedrooms, bathrooms and price. The portal maps fire-damaged properties and simplifies comparison of competing bids from vetted builders. Builders Alliance, a nonprofit of ten licensed developers, seeks cost reductions through shared procurement and operational efficiencies to deliver quality homes at competitive prices. Project Recovery, formed by academics and real estate experts from USC, UCLA and the Urban Land Institute, produced a roadmap that led to the portal. The initiative aims for faster, more predictable reconstruction with homes possibly ready by 2026.
