Software built the way custom home builders actually work

Long builds, allowance-driven selections, draw schedules, and clients who want to see everything — handled in one system, with JobFi, its built-in accounting, keeping the books.

See pricing — it's public · Why SelfConstruct

Selections on the demo company's Alpine Ridge Custom Home, filtered to what needs attention: each contract allowance beside what was chosen — interior doors and hardware at $9,840 against $9,500, $340 over; Calacatta Gray quartz countertops at $8,400 against $7,500, $900 over — and an $18,000 appliance package waiting on the client's choice, four days overdue

Selections and allowances are the job

On a custom build, the margin lives and dies in selections. SelfConstruct makes every allowance visible to the client as they choose, requires confirmation, and records the decision — upgrade conversations happen before the order, not after the invoice.

Clients who feel informed don't call

A custom-home client checks in constantly — unless their portal already shows the week's schedule, fresh photos, what's been paid, and what needs their approval. Clients tend to tell their friends about the portal — that's the referral.

Draws, costs, and books in one place

Deposit-to-final draw invoicing, budget-vs-actual by cost code as the build runs, and a double-entry ledger underneath — so an 18-month build never drifts financially out of sight.

Questions builders ask

We build 2–6 homes a year. Is this overkill?

It's sized for exactly that. $299/mo per company, unlimited users, and the demo company runs a fleet like yours — look around it first.

Can clients approve selections and COs themselves?

Yes — in their portal, with recorded confirmations and e-signatures. That paper trail is the point.

Does it replace our accounting software?

For the books, yes — full double-entry accounting with statements and a CPA year-end package is built in. It does not run payroll or file sales tax, and an independent construction-CPA review is planned rather than finished.
