Does anyone have a recommended architect for Single Family Homes?

Using skype like that is almost as fast as a single line mojo and much much cheaper.

Personally a duplex would not accommodate myself and my roommates so I went for a 3 bedroom single family home.

The total amount of the loan would be about $575,000, which is less than the median average of single and smaller multi-families in this town.

MOST of the homes yes, but not every single one. 

Dealing with a large 4 bed 2 bath house, single story.

I realize this is a very open-ended question since there are lots of variables, but I'd appreciate any thoughts on what would it cost to build a single family house in Bellevue/Issaquah area.

I remember every single one of them being bad tenants.

I currently have a single family house that I am house hacking and renting well to Disney interns while living there.
