[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm surprised you ate working with an architect before finding a builder. Architects are notorious for not understanding budgets, feasibility, everything. You'll definitely be redoing things. [/quote] I’m surprised by this response. How would you even be able to find a builder unless you know what you’re asking them to build, with some specificity to it? I’ve done an addition with a design-build firm and was less than impressed with their design side. So, for our next project, which will be quite substantial, we plan to work with an architect and then put the project out for bid. Given my preference to involve an architect, I don’t really know how I’d reverse the order of operations and find a builder first, without plans in hand.[/quote]
