Hi

I have a site ready for pre- planning in the council but a few people I speak to are giving us different answers in relation to who we should use for the planning & design stage, working and Tender Drawings ask then commencement and site inspection stage.
We have a fair idea of
Then ohoping to get a two storey house.
I spoke someone who said go with an out and our architect who will maximize your house inside and out and also give it a modern design.
Another said get an agent who will cover all, an engineer who does all the planning, design, percoaltion, soil test, tenders, site inspections etc. The latter will prob work out cheaper but will it just be a bog standard house design?
Sort of confused who to go with as we want to leave in the pre planning form to the council soon.
