The hiccup is it sounds like the village could put up a stink about splitting the lot and overall could be a fairly long process. 

As others have mentioned, permit fees may be included in the cost of your Architect (All though I prefer to keep this separate and let the Owner's pay directly) the "Permit Fees" are whatever the City, Village, County (etc.) are charging for you to obtain the permit.

Also I’m not sure what applies in your case but some of them have rules that you have to own as an individual not as a corporation or LLCCentury Village in Boca Raton for example will let you own if you are under 55.

Picfair Village is a rapidly improving part of Los Angeles, and new construction isn't burdened by rent control.Will you manage the property while living in it?

Gardena is nice around, Rowley park area or even El Camino Village, is a B class neighborhood to me.

Hi @Francis Rusnak, I've used Granite Selection in Elk Grove Village based off recommendations I've seen on the forum.

@Mitch Messer and @Priscilla Gomez If Rice village is too expensive, then I will suggest you look into Southwest Houston or anywhere within 30mins drive to Houston Downtown. 

I am focusing a lot of attention these days on Little Village as the numbers are still making sense there.

Last time I looked at MH Village prices they were high retail, so don’t go by that. 

That was a good but not great deal back then in southwedge/highland park or North Winton Village.
