@Ryan Kawash not necessarily, unless an architect drew up drawings of the project I wouldn't order special order items till I'm just about to that point.

In return I would manage the renovation including overseeing planning and permitting with architects, engineers, and contractors.

I'm an architect developer in Colorado, buying land in southern Colorado.

I’m an Architect and I am designing a house for a client that is a full gut rehab.

The seller keeps explaining to me that I need to reach out to an architect about federal money??

Is it required to hire an architect or licensed contractor, or is this something I am able to do myself?

Can any commercial contractor do the job given the blueprint that's done by a dental office designer and architect? 

Regardless the city seems to make up its own rules regarding zoning, which is sad......by now there should be a proper system in place that is structured and outlined properly.I'd check with an architect like @Samuel Pavlovcik or @Prashanth Mahakali.I'm definitely interested to find out what happens.

Our project started with buying a SFR, scraping it, working with an architect, submitting SDPs etc.,  in order to build 4 townhomes in Denver. 

Can anyone recommend a licensed architect who can achieve this job for me?
