    Working with an architect is something I naturally recommend for anyone I come across who needs advice in that area. But of course this isn’t to say that there isn’t any disadvantage to working with an architect.

    The first and only one I can think of is the fees. An architect fee will typically add about 10% - 15% extra cost to your budget, so of course many people tend to see this as a big disadvantage.

    Personally, I don’t see this as a disadvantage at all. Of course, when you consider the charges alone, you may get discouraged, but the value you get from hiring an architect is so immense that it eventually becomes a net positive.

    Not only will an architect help you solve complex problems regarding your building, they also do it in such an impressive manner. Proper architects can also help you manage your project, link you up with the best builders, and even obtain planning permission on your behalf.

    So yes, the fees may be considered a bit of a disadvantage, but it most definitely pays off in the long run.
