Problem

Deposits in new construction carry real risks

When buying a newly built home, buyers are often required to place a deposit — sometimes thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars.

These deposits may stay locked for months while construction progresses.

In certain situations — project delays, cancellations, or contract disputes — buyers may face uncertainty about their funds.

Builders also face their own challenges: cancellations, delayed deposits, and friction during the purchasing process.

The industry needs a better way to handle deposits.

Solution

A modern platform for deposit management

TrustBoxDeal replaces traditional deposit risk with a smart insurance model. Instead of buyers placing deposits with builders or third parties, TrustBoxDeal issues an insurance policy that protects both buyer and builder.

No deposits are held by us — only a small policy premium is paid. Both parties wait for closing with the policy as their guarantee.

The goal is simple:

  • eliminate deposit risk with insurance instead of cash
  • reduces friction, increases buyer confidence, and improves builder conversion rates
  • all without holding buyer money
