Typical consultant fees?

Consultant fees vary with the size and complexity of the home, the site, your location and the scope of service you engage, so MyBuildHub does not publish typical fee figures, which would quickly go out of date. Ask each consultant for a written fee proposal that states exactly what is and is not included, how extra work and revisions are charged, how many site visits or inspections are included, and when payment is due. Get at least two or three proposals for the main consultants and compare scope as well as price.

In MyBuildHub: record each fee proposal as a consultant cost line in your budget, and keep the signed agreement in your project documents. Use the Consultant Scopes FAQs to write each scope.

Check yourself: the consultants you are considering, and your certifier for which consultants your project needs.
