The question is: who wants to and can be involved – for the home builders and for the providers?
If you want to advise the home builder (partially on their side, to guide them to the best provider for their project), then this is not just a sideline, but a job that requires gaining and maintaining experience. And you would risk their trust if you lead them to the second best because the very best offers too little commission. The more customer-side impartial your advice is, the more you should also be paid from that side (or the customer must at least know that the provider contributes to the payment).
If you want to be valuable to the provider, you must also invest in training (including product-specific). Spreading half-competent talk about them is not something any provider wants, as they fear damage to their image.
Why actually prefab house providers? – thanks to the trend towards individual planning with prefab houses on the one hand and the standardized building proposals for solid houses on the other, this distinction is increasingly blurring. I would rather go "dual track" and have something on offer for all three groups: the friends of the shorter (construction) time, the friends of stone construction, and the third group who are not fixed on any building method.
Passing on addresses without added value (advice for the customer, lead qualification for the provider) I see as a dead horse – hence the consideration from the perspective "with advice."
P.S.: isn’t the thread in the wrong section? – I would rather see it under "Off Topic," or is the tip provider’s house supposed to be financed with it?
