Predictika · New-home purchase quotes

An AI sales agent's new-home quote, checked before it goes out

An AI sales agent prepares a purchase quote for a new home: a home line (single family, townhome or Next Gen), a plan size, garage, outdoor and smart-home options, the lot, Design Studio selections, the deposit, the lender and the stated home price. Before it goes out, the agent sends it to Predictika, which checks it against a declarative model of the rules and returns a verdict and every reason.

Scope: Lennar new-home quotes (single family, townhome, Next Gen): options by home line, lot size, quick move-in homes, deposit, Lennar Mortgage incentives, loan limit and the stated price. See everything this validator covers

This validator models new-home purchase quotes of this kind, not just the scenarios shown below.

  • Home line and options — Next Gen add-ons only on Next Gen homes, no third garage bay or pool on a townhome, minimum lots for Next Gen and for a pool, and a quick move-in home that is already built.
  • Package and price — the fixed Everything’s Included package, the base price by home line and plan, options, lot premium and Design Studio selections added up to a home price, compared with the price stated.
  • Deposit and financing — the minimum deposit, an incentive that needs Lennar Mortgage and stays within 4 percent, a loan within 95 percent of the price, and manager approval for large discounts, selections or lot premiums.

Any new-home quote that touches these rules is in scope — not only the scenarios pictured here. Product and option names follow Lennar’s public pages (Next Gen, Everything’s Included, Wi-Fi CERTIFIED Home Designs, Design Studio, Lennar Mortgage); every price and every threshold is modeled from comparable production home builders and is not published by Lennar. Not covered: community-specific pricing, taxes, closing costs and other plans.

The AI sales agentBuilds the new-home purchase quote from the conversation and says it is ready.

Where rules-based CPQ gets it wrong

Click to expand

Our assessment of what a typical rules-based CPQ (product rules, price rules and validation rules, as in Salesforce CPQ) does with the same cases. It is a judgment about effort and reliability, not a claim that nothing can be built.

What the validator caughtTypical rules-based CPQPredictika
Add-ons that exist on one home line onlyOnly with care
Next Gen garage and laundry add-ons belong to one home line, so each add-on needs a rule against the home line chosen.
The home line and every add-on are checked together on every call.
Lot minimums that depend on the options chosenOnly with care
A Next Gen home and a pool each need a larger lot, so a rule must compare the lot with a different minimum for each choice.
The lot, the home line and the options are in one request and are checked together.
A home price built from many partsOnly with workarounds
The price depends on the base for the line and plan, each option, the lot premium and selections, so a rule must add them before it compares anything with the stated price.
The price is computed on every call and compared with the price stated in the quote.
Limits that are a percent of a computed priceOnly with workarounds
The 4 percent incentive cap and the 95 percent loan limit apply to a total that is itself computed, so the total must exist before they can be checked.
The computed price is available to every rule in the same call.
Every problem returned in one answerOnly with workarounds
Rules tend to fire as a step is saved or completed, so a person often fixes one error and meets the next.
All findings come back together, whatever order the choices arrived in.

What this validator catches: findings from its test cases

Click to expand

Every rule is checked on every call, in any order the choices arrive; one problem never hides another. Blocking findings stop the quote; approval findings need a person to sign off; everything else is computed.

1A Next Gen home needs a lot of at least 5,000 square feet; this lot is 4,999 square feet.
2The single-car garage and laundry add-ons belong to the Next Gen home-within-a-home and are not offered on other home lines.
3A townhome cannot take a third garage bay or a pool.
4A pool needs a lot of at least 7,500 square feet; this lot is 7,499 square feet.
5A quick move-in home is already built, so a pool, a third garage bay or Next Gen add-ons cannot be added.
6The Everything’s Included package is fixed; included features cannot be removed to lower the price.
7The sales deposit is 1,999 dollars; at least 2,000 is required.
8A rate buydown or closing-cost incentive is paired with Lennar Mortgage; this quote uses another lender or cash.
9The incentive of 25,761 dollars is more than 4 percent of the home price of 644,000 dollars.
10The loan of 611,801 dollars is more than 95 percent of the home price of 644,000 dollars.
11The quote is a cash purchase but lists a loan amount.
12The quote states a home price of 643,999 dollars; the modeled prices give 644,000 dollars.
13The quote states a home price of 645,000 dollars; the modeled prices give 644,000 dollars.
14The discount of 15,700 dollars is more than 3 percent of the base price; a division sales manager should approve.
15Design Studio selections of 78,100 dollars are more than 15 percent of the base price; a design manager should confirm.
16The lot premium of 52,100 dollars is more than 10 percent of the base price; a community manager should confirm.
17The quote states a home price of 100 dollars; the modeled prices give 628,300 dollars.

Narration transcript

The text of the narrated walkthrough, step by step.

  1. Welcome to a demo of Predictika's Validator. An AI sales agent prepares a purchase quote for a new home: a home line (single family, townhome or Next Gen), a plan size, garage, and more. Before it goes out, the agent sends it to Predictika, which checks it against a declarative model of the rules and returns a verdict and every reason.
  2. I will start with the first request by the agent.
  3. The agent says. Please quote a mid-size single-family home with three garage bays, a pool and the Wi-Fi CERTIFIED smart-home package. The lot is 6,000 square feet and this is a quick move-in home, the lot premium is 20,000 dollars, Design Studio selections are 45,000 dollars. The rest of the request is on screen. The quote states a home price of 694,000 dollars.
  4. Before it goes out, the agent calls the validator.
  5. Blocked, with four findings, all in one answer. A pool needs a lot of at least 7,500 square feet; this lot is 6,000 square feet. A quick move-in home is already built, so a pool, a third garage bay or Next Gen add-ons cannot be added. The sales deposit is 1,500 dollars; at least 2,000 is required. The other one is on screen.
  6. The validator returned four blocking findings in one answer. A check that reads one field at a time would pass most of this; it shows only when the choices in the quote are checked against each other.
  7. What this shows: for a home price built from many parts, a rules-based CPQ can do this only with workarounds.
  8. Now the agent resubmits.
  9. The corrected request. It changes the garage bays to 2, the outdoor to a covered patio, the lot to 8,000, the deposit to 5,000, the lender to Lennar Mortgage and the stated home price to 606,000.
  10. It calls the validator again.
  11. This time the validator clears it.
  12. All four earlier findings are cleared.
  13. Four problems caught in one call, fixed in one pass, and a clean quote. That is the value of Predictika's validator: catching mistakes before they reach the customer. Now you can try the other scenarios yourself.
