CONSULTING

When I was little, the thought of building a house seemed overwhelming to me. It was so big and there were so many parts and pieces involved. How could one person put all of that together and create something you could live in? It simultaneously fascinated and scared me. As it turns out, a lot of adults feel the same way. While building a home can be daunting – and expensive - it is within the reach of almost anyone. With help from Titus Development you can save thousands of dollars in general contractor fees, sub contractor bids, materials sourcing, architecture and design, and land acquisition while getting the home you really want. In the end, we can save you far more money on your project than you pay us for our help, and we will save you time and aggravation in every stage of the construction process.

• Land Acquisition: What are the pros and cons of a piece of land? Are there problems with the soil or will it be easy to build on? Is there a structure on the lot to demolish or is it vacant? These and dozens of other issues can make a huge financial difference when deciding on a piece of land. Do you know the answers to these and other important questions? We do and we can save you enough in this one phase of the process to justify our entire fee.
  
  
• Architecture, design and engineering: Titus Development has worked with several architects and engineers and can put you in touch with an individual or firm that shares your vision.
  
  
• Permitting: We can use our general contractor’s license when securing permits. When inspectors see a professional is supervising the job it almost always eases the inspection process.
  
  
• Sub Contractors: Most people won’t need the help of a framer, HVAC professional or foundation expert more than once in their lives. So where do you go to find a good one? What is a fair price to pay, how long should it take to complete the work and what should it look like when they’re finished? We have these answers and a list of proven, licensed professionals. We can help you obtain and review bids and hire the right person for the job.
  
  
• Materials Acquisition: Home Depot is a great resource, but it’s not where to go for most of what you need when building a home. Many other suppliers offer specialized products that you won’t find on the shelves of big box retailers (and the average tract home). They can also provide a level of service that will make your life easier. We know where to find them.
  
  
• Green Building: While most homes built today meet Green Building standards unheard of just 15 years ago, we can help you take your project to the next level with building materials and expert help with solar or geothermal heating systems, that can make your home a model of Green Building techniques.
  
  
• Budgeting: Titus Development has customizable spread sheets and can quickly help you estimate the cost to build your home. The final cost depends on many factors, but we can help you stay on target.
  
  
• Smaller projects: Maybe you just want a new garage, an addition or a bathroom remodel, or you just need help with a few of the areas outlined above. We will tailor our services to meet your needs and in the end, save you more than you pay us for help.
