Combining Apartments Fees
I would like to combine two apartments in a brownstone. It would make it a floor through with the same layout as the other floor through in the building. I have gotten a contractor estimate. What would be a fair estimate of architect fees, expeditor, DOB fees ?

If you qualify for a combination of apartments without affecting he c.of o. that will reduce your fees significantly for architect and expeditor fees so you ahould explore that option if possible
For an architect to give you a fee they need to see what you are going and get a feel for all that needs to be accomplished. At a low end you are taking out a kitchen and punching a hole through the wall. DOB fees are based upon the cost of construction. Permit expediters cost are usually based upon the type of permit to be pulled. If you are in need of an architect, give me a call to discuss further. There are several of us here on the list. Interview 3, see who you like.
