Advisory Phase
McQuade offers the assistance you need in evaluating land before making your purchase and, when needed, helps assess the feasibility of the property you already own. We’ll review the grading, regulations, utility issues and more. During this advisory phase, we’ll also discuss the desired scope of your new home and begin to gather information necessary to prepare a preliminary design and budget. If there is already a home on your property, we’ll offer advice about the best approach for your needs, desires, and budget – from a whole home/custom remodel to a complete tear down and rebuild.
