Since the I have had it cleared, soil work done, survey done, civil engineer is almost complete and I am looking for an architect.

The key is to find a really good engineer, architect, and general contractor, that specialize in multi family if you’re going that route. 

I don't think Chicago allows Pex @Brandon Ellis, not 100% sure but they didn't used to for residential plumbing.There is an insulation product called InSoFast that an architect recommended. 

Hello everyone,I am in need of a good surveyor or architect.

We are both architects so NOT picking a nice house and NOT spending lots of money rehabbing our house is torture for us.

I second Kyles call to get in touch with an architect.

It did take a lot of trips (sucking up) to the bldg. inspector. 24 months of rehab to code, including a complete fire sprinkler system & hiring a commercial architect.

We sell Andersen and Marvin windows to developers, builders, architects and remodeling contractors.

Plan was to make high-end rental units with some exposed brick, in-unit washer/dryer, off-street parking, tile shower, solid countertops, etc.Mistake 1: I had a local architect make building plans involving a floorplan change for a new bath/kitchen/master bedroom with walk-in closet arrangement in the rear of the units.

I placed in on the market to see what will happen.A buyer was found, made his offer, almost asking, then bought a licensed home inspector who happened to be a friend and architect.
