  1. How to Decide an Architect’s Fee? Nowadays, most people have started opting for professional architect’s services when developing their house. The cost of developing a house is a one-time expense for most people. People may get their house coloured from time to time depending upon their requirement. Also, they might get a few minor structural changes done. Apart from that people do not get any major changes done. Reason being demolishing and reconstruction is time consuming and heavy for the pocket. When you are searching for the top architects in India you may wonder on what basis is the fees to be decided. The determination of fees depends upon two factors. The first being the experience of the architect. And the second being the contract agreed upon. The more the experience the more the charge. The scope of work and the complexity of the project also matter while deciding the fees. Most architects prepare a project architect to show their client. It is a 3D representation of the final outcome. This helps the client and the architect get clarity upon the work before they start the work. Minute details can be covered through it. There are three kinds of contracts when deciding the fees. You can find architects in Mumbai who charge any of the below three types of contracts. The first method is to charge a certain percentage on the total cost of development. This method can be adopted if you have the time to look into all the expenses incurred. By adopting this technique, you can save on some unnecessary expenditures. The second method is paying the architect by the hour. This method is useful if you want some expert advise on your project or you have a small project where you do not require a fulltime architect. Here, the architect may not accompany you when you go for selecting materials. They might just give you an idea of what you could buy. This method can be adopted if you are looking at creating a space in your house for a specific activity like study room, office. They can advice you well on how this additional space can be created. www.accessarchitects.in

  2. The third method is lump sum. This is the most frequently used method. In this method you just mention your budget. The architect will present to you the options available. Under this method, the cost of procuring the raw materials is borne by the architect. You need to accompany the architect for selecting the ply, flooring, sofas etc. In the course of years, the architect would have developed contacts from where they can procure the materials at a lower cost. They also have a better understanding about the durability and can guide you better. This method is great if you cannot spare time to inspect each expense individually. You may find hiring an architect expensive. one might consider it as a luxury, but it is a necessity more often. The experience they hold is what they are charging for. www.accessarchitects.in
