[quote=GreytPets]I am in the construction business and also in the process of building a house for myself. I can share lots of advice related to the architect. I would make sure the contract has stipulations that they are responsible for all costs related to re-designs required by the county in order to obtain the permit. Also which permits are they helping you get? Depending on jurisdiction, you may need site development permit, HVAC permit etc. that all require drawings as well. Some architects do and some do not do this. I also had a clause the architect will respond to all contractor requests for information (ie. drawing clarifications/discrepencies) for no cost. Also, strongly recommend not hiring the architect for construction administration (overseeing construction). Send me a private message if you wish and I can send you more info and a draft of the contract (which was the contract I generated not one from the architect which is completely one sided in their favor)[/quote]
