You will walk away with a written evaluation including:

  • Answers to as many of your questions as possible

  • Prioritized wish list

  • Analysis of zoning + other regulations

  • Live target timeline you can follow along with

  • Diagnosis of your project feasibility

  • Recommended next steps

 

Optional extras:

  • Ballpark cost expectations for your project

  • The Solutions Review - A site visit with a consulting builder and/or structural engineer to identify potential challenges and costs

  • The Sketch Plan Conference - an informal presentation to the Planning Board to identify their questions, concerns and likelihood of approval

How does it work?

Step 1

The Game Plan Consultation - The 1st meeting is an in-person site visit to walk the property, tour the house, and discuss your goals and challenges.​

  • The Solutions Review (optional) - a site visit with a consulting builder and/or structural engineer to identify potential challenges and costs.​

Step 2

The Needs + Options Review - The 2nd meeting can be in-person on or zoom to review the evaluation together and discuss next steps.​

  • A proposal for full services is included in the Needs + Options Review.  Once we’ve established the right size project scope that fits into the right size budget, we can accurately recommend the right size service for your needs.
