Cost Estate Planning


Our Quantity Surveying Services
Bills of Quantities
We provide detailed Bills of Quantities of the approved design that can then be used by tendering contractors and suppliers to price against, whilst ensuring that submitted tenders are accurate, reliable, and comparable.
Cost Planning
We provide construction cost estimates at all design stages from first concept right through to final detailed design to help inform Clients on the project financial viability and budgeting, market rates and cost impacts of design and specification options.
Tender Documentation
We compile tender documentation, including the draft conditions of contract, design drawings, specifications and schedules, the Bill of Quantities, conditions of tender and the request for tender letter to then be issued formally to the pre-qualified tender field.
Change Order
We review validity, assist in negotiating and formally administer contract changes on behalf of clients to ensure all changes are fair, reasonable, and properly documented.
Cost / Bid Analyses
We complete comprehensive bid comparisons between suppliers and contractors and recommend to the Client the best value for money option, within budget, programme and specification for the Client to proceed with.
Lead-Time Analysis
We review the project design to highlight items that may cause delay to the project schedule. These items of concern can be substituted for alternate designs or suppliers that can meet schedule, whilst maintaining alignment with the overarching project objectives.
Cost Estate Planning
A key factor in the Cost of Estate Planning is the type of documents you choose to create. The most basic estate planning documents include a will, which outlines how your assets should be distributed after your death, and a power of attorney, which allows someone else to make financial decisions on your behalf if you become incapacitated. These documents can typically be created relatively inexpensively, with a will typically costing between $100 and $400 and a power of attorney costing around $100.
However, if your financial situation is more complex, you may need to create additional documents, such as trusts or healthcare directives, which can significantly increase the Cost of Estate Planning. Trusts, for example, can be used to manage assets for the benefit of specific individuals or organizations, and can be customized to meet your specific needs. The cost of creating a trust can vary widely, with some trusts costing several thousand dollars to create.
Another factor in the Cost of Estate Planning is the type of professional you choose to work with. Estate planning attorneys are typically the most expensive option, with fees ranging from $1,000 to $1,500 or more. However, they are also the most experienced in estate planning and can provide valuable guidance on the best strategies to meet your specific needs. Alternatively, you may choose to work with a financial planner or paralegal, which can be a more cost-effective option, although they may not have the same level of expertise as an attorney.
Overall, the Cost of Estate Planning can vary widely depending on the complexity of your financial situation and the strategies you choose to implement. It is important to carefully consider your options and to work with a professional who can help you create a plan that meets your specific needs.
