WHAT THIS SERVICE IS

Fast feasibility + roadmap for landowners: what you can build, how to get it permitted, two schematic options, a budget range, key risks, and clear next steps.

WHO IT’S FOR
  • Owners or buyers of a plot who need clarity before investing.
  • Self-builders and small developers wanting realistic options, costs, and timelines.
  • Overseas owners who prefer a remote, architect-led start.
WHAT YOU GET (IN 5–7 DAYS)
  • Buildability & zoning check: rules, setbacks, height/coverage, access, utilities, views.
  • Two schematic options: layouts/massing with pros and cons.
  • Budget range: order-of-magnitude CAPEX + main cost drivers.
  • Permit pathway: required drawings/consultants + indicative timeline.
  • Risks & mitigations: clear red flags and ways to reduce them.
  • Next-steps PDF: concise pack to share with stakeholders.
HOW IT WORKS
  1. Intro call (15–30 min) to align goals and constraints.
  2. Document intake (plot info, survey/topo if available, deed/agent brochure, photos, map link).
  3. Desk study & planning checks covering rules, context, utilities, access.
  4. Two options + budget + roadmap prepared by the team.
  5. Review call (Q&A) and agreement on next steps.
  6. Fixed proposal for Concept/Schematic (part of this fee can be credited).
WHAT WE NEED FROM YOU
  • Plot address and map link; any survey/topo; deed or agent brochure; photos.
  • Target use (house/villa/apartments/boutique hotel) and rough size.
  • Style references and known constraints (heritage, slopes, trees, utilities, access, neighbors).
BUDGET & FEE
  • Fixed quote after the intro call.
  • Part of the Build Roadmap fee is credited if you proceed to Concept/Schematic.
  • Budget provided is a decision-support range; it’s refined during design and tender.
PERMITS & CONSULTANTS
  • We outline exact drawings and typical consultants: surveyor, structural, MEP, energy, geotech (where needed).
  • Next stage: we coordinate all parties to deliver a permit-ready package.
RISKS WE CHECK
  • Planning red flags, access/parking, topography & drainage, utility availability.
  • Neighbor impacts, daylight/solar, noise/privacy, structural complexity.
  • Environmental/heritage constraints and budget sensitivities.
WHAT HAPPENS AFTER

Choose the preferred option, confirm scope and fee, then we start Concept/Schematic, coordinate consultants, prepare permit drawings, and plan the route to tender and construction.

Architecture Meets Investment

Plot Feasibility & Build Roadmap

Own a plot or about to buy one? This architect-led service gives you a fast, professional answer to four key questions: what you can build, how to get it permitted, how much it is likely to cost, and what to do next.


Who this is for

  • Landowners who want clarity before investing in full design.
  • Buyers under offer who need quick, expert due diligence.
  • Self-builders and small developers seeking a realistic concept, budget, and permit path.
  • Overseas owners who prefer a remote, architect-led start.

What you get (in 5–7 days)

  • Buildability & zoning check: planning rules, setbacks, height/coverage, access, utilities, views.
  • Two schematic options: high-level layouts & massing with pros/cons (size, orientation, daylight, privacy).
  • Budget range: order-of-magnitude CAPEX with the main cost drivers (structure, MEP, site works, finishes).
  • Permit pathway: required drawings, typical consultants, and an indicative timeline to approval.
  • Risks & mitigations: what could block approvals or inflate costs—and how to reduce that risk.
  • Next-steps pack (PDF): a concise brief to share with co-owners, agents, lenders, or builders.

How it works

  1. Intro call (15–30 min): goals, constraints, budget envelope.
  2. Document intake: plot address & map link, any survey/topo, deed/agent brochure, photos.
  3. Desk study: planning checks, site constraints, context, utilities, and access.
  4. Schematics: two viable options with quick massing and area breakdowns.
  5. Roadmap call: we walk you through the pack, answer questions, agree next steps.
  6. Fixed proposal: if you proceed, part of the fee is credited against Concept/Schematic.

Why it de-risks your project

  • Saves time: avoid months lost on an unpermittable idea.
  • Saves money: right-size the concept before paying for full design.
  • Aligns the team: everyone works from the same, realistic brief.

What we need from you

  • Plot address and map link; any survey/topo if available; deed or agent brochure; photos.
  • Target use (house/villa/apartments/boutique hotel) and rough size.
  • Style references and known constraints (heritage, slopes, trees, utilities, access, neighbors).

Outcome: you receive a clear yes/no on buildability, two concept directions, a budget range, a permit roadmap, and a practical checklist for the next stage.


FAQs

Do I need a topographic survey first?

Helpful but not mandatory. We can start with available data (maps, deed, agent brochure, photos) and refine once a topo survey is commissioned.

Is the Build Roadmap enough to submit for permit?

No. It is a decision tool. After you select an option, we prepare permit-ready drawings and coordinate the required consultants.

How accurate is the budget?

It is an order-of-magnitude range to support decisions. We refine costs during Concept/Schematic and competitive tender.

Can everything be done remotely?

Yes. All meetings can be online; you receive a complete PDF pack with options, budget, risks, and a permit pathway.

Can you handle permits and engineering?

Yes. We coordinate architectural, structural, MEP, and energy inputs as one team to deliver a permit-ready package.
