They basically fill the role of an administrative assistant, but it sounds fancier.

That aside, it all comes down to how much you value your time -- Ask yourself if the opportunity cost of a owning Condo (with lower ROI) is adequate enough to compensate for the time saved and ease of administration.

Different window manufacturer on the main floor, the same windows in the basement, however the specifications were nearly identical.I spent years writing spec books for a design/construction administration girl and then scopes of work for a GC, so apples to apples bids/pricing always.I’m not sure why or how he priced it like he did, and have even used him for other work (and been happy with his quality and price), just not sure if this was a “I don’t want the job, but for this price I will do it”.

I suggest you locate the administrator of the Section 8 program for your area and learn about how they manage the program.

Hi my name is Brian Mbangwana, i am a newbie here and i actually do not have any real estate under my belts yet, looking to start out. i am originally from Africa( Cameroon) i am a System Administrator for Micron Technologies.

As this architect will not be directly invested in the job, it might be a great opportunity to ask them lots of questions regarding the 'construction administration' process (if you want a list of services commonly provided by architects, please ask, as I am sure @Jared W Smith, I and others would be glad to share with you).

Who is your SDIRA custodian/administrator?
