- What critieria should you use to decide on an architect? If can be a challenging topic. They have control over so much of the building project, timeline, design, and will have influence on so many outcomes of the process. Choosing the right architect is going to be very important.

You're the best, Jake. I always learn something when watching your videos. Thanks for what you do.
Thanks for the input! Thanks for watching!
Thanks so much for this, perfect timing. Slightly terrifying, though. Wife and I just closed on land for the dream retirement house, which is 12 hours from current home. It sounds like finding the right architect around here would have been challenging enough, since neither of us has ever built before. Doing so remotely is gonna be a lift, but we’ve got a couple of years to figure it out. Know any good builders or architects in Virginia? 😂😅
Where in Virginia?
@@jake.bruton.aarow.building Western. Shenandoah valley, Blue Ridge Mountains area.
@@jake.bruton.aarow.building Anywhere else in Virginia and this Wisconsin kid would melt by May!
@@jake.bruton.aarow.building Western Virgina, in the Blue Ridge/ Shenandoah valley area. Any ideas would be great. Reached out to a few folks already, and everyone seems nice and I'm sure totally competent, but I really want to do high performance, and I'm hearing stuff like "well, code is..." and "5 ACH 50...," which gets me nervous.
Sorry, don’t know anyone in the area. Find a HERS rater of BPI professional in the area and inquire with them who is building the best homes in the market, they will know.
As an engineer, i like working with the architect and builder to find the most effective solution for all involved.
Same here. Sometimes it doesn’t work that way but some times it does.
What's your thoughts on a lot of architecture schools not even teaching residential design and construction methods? It seems most nowadays are big commercial work, and know very little about how houses go together.
Its a shame but I understand that there is very little money in residential compared to commercial nowadays. They go where the money is.
don't skimp on your architect or it will cost you on your build.
Absolutely.
