need to pay maybe more$$$ for ID to draft and they would prefer u to use their contractor...

There are a lot of misconception i belief.

 

Most so call ID are actually more of having a relationship with their own contractors etc..

 

To most, this might not be an issue, but to me, its a basic conflict of interest.

 

Usually, they say the Design fee is free as long as u get their contractors. But I soon realize that the fee they incorporated it already in the final price.

 

Instead, I go for a separate designer. The designer basically works for me.. not the contractor. I can assign ANY contractors or they can recommend. So, my interests are kept. Not the money interests of the designer and their contractors.

 

I paid the designer a fix fee. He/she has to ensure all works are done accordingly.

yup...many ID have relationship with contactors...so they earn from both sides...

if can get a ID that is willing to just "work" for you then it will be good...

You got the point. You are right. However, there is absence/lack of skilled workers in the market. Good design, but workers can not perform also become lousy renovation. My previous place, got contractor came to report the situation to me.
