You can’t possibly anticipate everything that’s going to be needed for a successful project at the beginning, how can you expected to select all the potential services you might need when hiring an Owner’s Rep. You don’t want to be nickel and dimed for every service along the way, you want a partner that you know is going to handle it for you, no matter what comes up during the life of your project. Our services are less a menu and more of a guide to help you understand where you are in the process and figure out where Beecher Development Services fits with your project.
