Excited for the building but is this really true? I'm seeing $3-7k for luxury 2 bedroom rentals in the area. https://www.apartments.com/rittenhouse-square-philadelphia-pa/2-bedrooms/luxury/

I would def choose to buy then pay that price. Also, if someone has that kind of budget I doubt they are looking in Grays Ferry, Cobbs Creek and etc

Reply to Rowhouse bathroom addition contractor recommendations? by andrewbt

If you guys have a good handle on the design, I would recommend Beth Allen. She's top notch. She doesn't talk on the phone though but she texts and emails. She's independent and will GC the whole thing. She's licensed/insured and can/will pull permits if you want.
She's a really good person too and will give you advice even if you don't go with her. I can share her number, if you'd like.

For firms, try Hivemind and Kole the min was 50k but this was in 2021. I don't know if the rates went up, checkout Oak Design Project. I really liked their vibe and explanation of things. They said 40-50k for a kitchen in 2021 which I had they money lol.
