CHALLENGE

Every new lead meant another search across county tools

Stefan Claar is the COO and Principal of 1222 Development. His work spans all facets of land development, from acquisitions to preliminary design and site evaluation. Leads come in constantly, and each one needs a rapid triage.

At the same time, county-by-county tools are fragmented. For deeper detail he still goes to local GIS portals, but doing that from scratch for every inquiry is slow and inconsistent.

SOLUTION

Check the parcel. Spot constraints. Decide what’s next.

Stefan uses Regrid as a fast, mobile-first diligence layer to quickly screen new leads and decide whether a site is worth pursuing. In minutes, he can assess key constraints like wetlands, streams, and flood risk, then share a clearer initial view with clients or his team.

When a site looks promising, Regrid helps him move from a quick scan to deeper research faster, with direct links to relevant ordinances and built-in insights like demographics, population density, and housing affordability to support site packages—especially for multifamily.

RESULTS

Faster site screening. Deeper diligence with less effort.

Regrid made Stefan’s diligence process faster and easier to repeat across counties. “It’s incredibly more efficient with Regrid,” he said. Instead of postponing early research because it is hard to assemble, he can get a clearer overview with less effort. “It has made the diligence that we do deeper with less effort.”

Regrid is now a daily tool for Stefan and his team. “We use it every day.” And when he shares it in meetings, the product experience sells itself. 

“Every time I pull up Regrid, people are like ‘what is that… what program do you use?’ and like nine of ten of them will subscribe because it just feels and works so much better than most.”
