Can anyone recommend a good architect?

My plans (if it's for me to decide or at least suggest) include as one of many cost-control measures, approaching local architecture schools to see how/if a graduating student could with sponsorship/supervision of a licensed architect do the plans.Can this be done also with engineering services?

Check out the Ross Chapin architect website and all his plans for small houses--a number of really nice options for 500-1000 sf.

I am an architect and builder.

I have an architecture background (soon to be licensed California architect), I am interested in what is phrased as Architect as a Developer.  

I think it would be easier to keep long term and rent it out as two units later if i move. ill be doing it legally i had the architect out the other day he's going to check with the city on what we can do exactly . ultimately  its all about the numbers making sense on the construction.

Hello BP Members-I am working with a prominent short term Fix & Flipper based in Atlanta, GA who completes roughly 8-10 projects/month. 

That "code" tripped up my architect.

I am looking for an investor with access to $1 million to pay for the architect and engineering and legal and finance work.

Given the terrain here, it helps to have a builder who has a good engineer they work well with too.Then the buyer can put the property under contract and use the due diligence (inspection) period to get into more details and pay for tests such as the perk test/septic permit if needed, discussions and analysis from an engineer and the builder/architect to make sure all the extra build costs are known before closing on the land, have a survey done, and whatever else is desired.
