Architect fees

$14 per meter Sq thats what I have been quoted. That includes 5 sets of plans covering all construction even plumbing and electrics. I am currently going throught the process. The cost of the plans is less than all the taxes and permissions that have to be paid. Any further questions PM me.

I would think the price depends on how well known the architect is. I believe the better known architects will charge much more than that. Some architects will also charge you 15% of the construction project. If you choose wisely, you may find an architect who will save you money, even with you paying him 15%. Remember, architects will get a discount on construction materials, and they will reduce the number of mistakes you make. Also, the architect who does the plans should be the one who continues the work, as there are numerous smaller matters that will have to be decided as the work gets underway. The experience of the architect is invaluable there.

If I were there I'd do it for you... but I'm not

Hi My quote of $14 was just for the plans if i want thier supervisory service while my villa is being built then that is extra. I think my architects quoted 1.5% of the total build costs for supervision. But I am not sure on that since I am still pondering if I want a supervisor.

Sarah Garcia and Dario Franco are the best I know. They may be expensive as usually happens with the best.
