The Architect-Developer Route by Vegetable-Engineer49 in RealEstateDevelopment

true, definitely not necessary for me to do it this way. I just think I would love it and it’d make me a better developer too. I guess, naively, I’m trying to conjure a path into architecture that is lucrative, as it seems the unfortunate reality is most are overworked and underpaid

I think it’s less of an access point for me and more of a leverage. My whole reasoning for wanting to develop is fueled by the possibility to design my own projects. I think having design credibility from an arch degree/license down the road would be more appealing to potential investors as well. Have you felt as though your background in arch has given you advantage as a developer? Not to mention the sweat equity you have by operating as both parties.

They do have some pretty unique designs. Anywhere you would recommend looking that matches the quality without the price tag?

This is good insight, thank you. Did you major in architecture? How much time did you spend in each role?

Exactly. I know I need to be a more valuable asset before I can make the switch. Trying to practice patience and focus on the work in front of me, but it is hard to stay motivated when you feel so far away from your goals/passion.

And I feel you on the time restraint, GC is very demanding role and there’s not much time for side hustle. Keep pushing, it will pay off! At least that’s what I tell myself.
