I love great architectural design and tiny homes so that would be great to get into for fun someday.

I'm Robby Dearth, I'm a rookie Realtor from Santa Rosa, California.I got into real estate after spending 15 years running a landscape design and installation company - I currently manage a Landscape Materials Supply Store (bulk rock, boulders, pavers etc..).

You could ask that they sign a dual agency agreement- designated or not.

If the only duplexes they can use are similar in condition, style, design and appeal with the only differences being acreage, school systems and a different part of town, an appraiser will use those comps and savage your value.I hope not, but my experience is they'll give value to the duplexes over new subdivisions.Stephanie

You can talk to a local house designer, architect, or design build contractor.

(e) Find out who did the design for the project (paint color scheme, tile, flooring, countertops, selections of vanities, plumbing & light fixtures, etc).

All other homes would either be designated non-owner occupied (investment) or vacation home. 

We are actively seeking for the following reference: Civil engineering company (for site planing), Architect (for town home design) and general contractors.
