What is a
Project Dashboard for Real Estate Companies
? Project Sales and Inventory Dashboards are considered sales analysis and planning tools and are used by sales executives and project managers to monitor key sales, unit inventory and other metrics for real estate projects. Some of the main functionality in this type of dashboard is that it provides seven different perspectives for analysis, including: 1) Revenues from the top 10 projects with actual and budget comparison, 2) Monthly unit sales trend with actual and budget comparison, 3) Top five projects by month of stock, 4) Available units trend, 5) Sold units trend, 6) Top five projects based on monthly average speed, and 7) Monthly trend in added units. You find an example of this type of dashboard below.
Purpose of
Project Dashboards Real Estate companies use Project Dashboards to give managers a clear picture of sales and inventory for the units in the real estate projects. When used as part of good business practices in Sales and Financial Planning and Analysis (FP&A) departments, a company can improve its strategic decisions and grow revenues, and it can reduce the chances that important trends or variances are missed with resulting delay in decision-making.
