FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Most people want a fixed fee. HOWEVER it is ALWAYS best to retain an Architect at an hourly T&M rate. NEVER use an architect that wants to charge based on a percentage of construction - there is NO incentive to make the project cost less for the client.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Participate in 24 hours of in-person and on-line educational events. Attend 3-6 trade shows per year.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
In High School, I visited an Architectural office. It is a controlled for of Art.
