Semi-detached house architect or general contractor / prefabricated house or solid construction

Cordi, often you get bits thrown at you like "Does it make sense to hire a distant architect."

What does distant mean? Do you know them? Are they any good? For the One World Trade Center, distant architects and planners were also hired - whether it makes sense for your 120 m² single-family house with a pitched roof is questionable - for your extravagant half-timbered Bauhaus villa with a light well, corner windows, and industrial chimney, it might once again be more appropriate.

Still, you can't answer the question like that. Why don't you take the architect from next door? Is there none there? Does the distant architect charge for travel each time? Do you always have to drive 2 hours there when you want to see them? What is he supposed to do anyway? Service phases 1-3 or the whole package?

, if one were paid for responses here, would you then also answer your fellow campaigners, the builders here? After all, it’s all voluntary give and take, have you ever thought about that?
