Episode 72 – Interview with John Cecilian and Phil Worland of Cecilian Partners
In Episode 72 of Land to Lots™, Carter Froelich speaks with John Cecilian and Phil Worland, co-founders of Cecilian Partners, about how technology is transforming the master-planned community (MPC) industry. They discuss how digital solutions are streamlining the homebuying process, making it faster and easier for MPC developers and homebuilders to deliver a seamless customer experience.
They also explore how a centralized data platform enables developers and builders to store, manage, and utilize data more efficiently—helping to streamline lot inventory management, eliminate spreadsheets, and bridge communication gaps between stakeholders.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- The importance of bringing the home-buying experience into the digital age.
- How a “one point of truth” system improves collaboration among developers, builders, and homebuyers.
- The potential impacts of AI and its applications in the MPC and land markets.
- How technology is reshaping the land and lot banking industry—and why it matters.
