For developers
Where the estimate earns its fee.
Developers need cost early, before a project is committed, and an independent check later, when contractor pricing arrives. We provide feasibility budgets from concept drawings and a measured second opinion on bids, so financing and go/no-go decisions rest on numbers you can explain.
Feasibility on thin information
Concept budgets with stated accuracy ranges, refined as design develops.
Bids that come in over budget
An independent estimate shows where the gap actually sits.
Lender and investor questions
Documented cost with quantities behind every line.

FAQ
Questions from developers.
Talk to an estimator
Not a salesperson. Same-day answers on working days.
+1 518 974 7222[email protected]How early can you estimate?
From a site plan and massing study. Accuracy ranges are stated and narrow as design develops.
Can you review a contractor's GMP?
Yes. We measure independently and reconcile against the GMP line by line.
Do you provide cost-to-complete for lenders?
Yes, based on the current set and progress documentation.
Can you use our cost book and labor rates?
Yes, and we prefer it. Your historical costs reflect your crews and your suppliers better than any published average. Send the template and we work inside it.
How does pricing work?
Pricing is per project and quoted before any work starts — no retainer, no minimum volume and no subscription.
