Consult With Craig
I have been fortunate to have designed, built and remodeled over $150 million dollars in residential real estate. My 30 years of experience has shown me that every homeowner who has a great experience, building and remodeling, all share one common characteristic. Their great experience was directly linked to how much they knew about the home building and remodeling process. Simply put, the more they knew about the process, the more enjoyable their experience was.
That is why I created the Residential Consulting Group.

With our virtual consultations you can quickly and easily get the information you need from the comfort of your home or office.

Questions
FAQ's
I don’t know where to begin, can you help me get started?
Yes! We love helping homeowners get started. That is why we give you a step-by-step plan showing you what to do and when to do it, because beginning your project the right way is the key to a great experience.
Can you help me keep my project within budget?
Yes! My experience has shown me that homeowners, like yourself, can keep your project in budget. All you need is a plan showing you how to do it.
Can you help me keep my project on schedule?
Yes! Keeping your project on schedule reduces stress, saves money, and makes your project more enjoyable. We show you how to do this so you can reduce stress and complete your project on time.
Can you help me choose the right home builder or remodeling contractor?
Yes! Not all home builders and remodelers are the same. Picking the right contractor can make all the difference in the world. We show you what you need to do to pick the right home builder or remodeler for you.
Can you help me pick the right architect?
Yes! Choosing the right architect for your dream home or remodeling project will help ensure your design looks great and stays within budget. We show you what you need to do and what you need to look for when selecting your architect.
Can you help us design our home?
Yes! We can provide you with architectural guidance and services that achieve the look you want while simultaneously staying within your construction budget.
Can you help revise my architectural plans so my project can fit my construction budget?
Yes! The biggest mistake homeowners make, is assuming architects know construction cost. The truth is architects do not buy material and labor, so asking them to control the construction cost of your project is unfair. Every day we buy material and labor, through our construction company, this gives us accurate data on what things cost and allows us to guide you with design ideas and revisions that will get your project back on budget.
I have problems with my homebuilder or remodeler, can you help me?
Yes! Many times, issues arise between homeowners and contractors. I use my 30 years of experience to help you navigate these issues, so you and your contractor can get back on the same page and complete your project.
Can you review our plans before the call? Yes! Craig can review your plans before your consultation, but please note there is a fee involved, as reviewing plans can take longer than the actual consultation.
What should I do to prepare for our consultation? We recommend you organize all the topics you want to talk about and email them to us before your consultation with Craig. Make sure you prioritize them so we can ensure we cover the most important topics first. \
Can we schedule weekly or monthly virtual meetings so you can help me throughout my project? Yes! Many homeowners schedule weekly or monthly virtual meetings, so we can go over whatever topics, concerns, or guidance you need. This is one of our most popular programs, because you have the confidence in knowing I’m going to help you throughout your project to make sure you can have the best experience possible.
