  1. We are a custom home builder. We have been starting to use Home Designer Pro to build preliminary floor plans with clients starting down the sales process. Many of our clients are looking to do modification of our existing plans. I can do a decent job at getting the bulk of the layout drawn, but I am running into roadblocks when it gets into some technical details such as roof plans and stairs that get a little more complicated. Also, I'd like to utilize the program to be used more for design and material selection as well so I may need help in applying finishes. Long term, I would like to incorporate terrain so any experience with that would be a plus. Ideally, I'd be looking for someone who would be able to work on an hourly basis and typically turn around minor changes and details in a day or two. I understand more elaborate projects will need some more time. I would like to be able to transfer files using a shared Dropbox or Google Drive folder. I would like to make payments on a bi-weekly basis for the total accrued hours through the preceeding week to align with our billing cycle. I may be able to make other arrangements if necessary. You would be a 1099 contractor. Let me know if you have any questions. Attached is a sample of a plan I'm working with. RF79-Steeplechase2-HD.plan
  2. We are a custom and semi-custom home builder all of our plans are drawn by third party architectural firms. The architects provide us with a PDF of the final plans. We are looking to have someone redraw/import/convert the plans to be modeled in Chief Architect or Home Designer Pro. In our office, we currently have Home Designer Pro. I believe they can be drawn in Chief Architect, then exported to be used in Home Designer Pro. Our goals for redrawing these plans is so we can utilize the plans in CA or HD to model client finish selections, model contemplated client changes, and create supplemental construction details for trade partners. If possible, we'd like to eventually to virtual tours or renderings with the software. I'd like to use this as a sales tool for prospective buyers who are considering one of our portfolio home designs which might not have built recently or have access to. Attached are samples of a few of our recent plans. I would like to work with someone who can provide a standardized deliverable file for a set price. Then we can have an agreed rate (probably hourly) for requested changes. I plan to see how this works on 1 plan initially, but depending on costs, we have about 20 portfolio plans which I'd consider having drawn up. Also, I see a potential continuing relationship with the right individual to accommodate changes while working with prospective buyers. Let me know if you have any questions.
