Okay well we first met our architect on August 14th. He's going to build a house for me and my hubby in the backyard of where we live right now with my in-laws. It is going to be a 1200sq ft house, one story with 3 rooms, 2 full baths. That day that we met him we gave him a check for $1600, a week later he showed us the interior design. A week later he showed us the exterior design. After we approved of it, we gave him the other check.
He said that the next step is engineering which will take almost 2 weeks, and then after that we will give him the last check, and we will start to build the house. We are not having the architects contractors do it, we are all going to do it on our own, since everyone in our family knows something different about building a home.
My questions are, what exactly will the architect do in the engineering? Whats that process about? If by the end of September we are all ready to go, do you think that we can finish it by December? If every weekend we work on it? Is it possible for it to be done that quick?
