Today’s letter is brought to you by Prophetic!
Land acquisition still runs on spreadsheets, cold calls, and gut instinct. Prophetic gives homebuilders and land teams one AI-native platform for sourcing, feasibility, and outreach, with every deal tracked in a single pipeline. It also surfaces off-market land before it's ever listed, so you can find sites your competitors don't even know exist. Teams on Prophetic move faster from first look to signed contract, so the best parcels don't end up in someone else's pipeline.
Curious what that looks like on your own market? See it in action.
5 tables showing home price shifts across every major region
For today’s ResiClub article, we created five tables showing metro area year-over-year home price shifts for the September-to-September window in each year of the past decade, broken out by the nation’s major regions.
Let’s start with the West.

“Strongest”: Abilene, TX —> +10.5% YoY
