Estimating renovation costs before property purchase offer

@lowyield

they may finance at less than the 80%

migrosbank did finance 80% of the renovation in my case.
In my experience, you need an architect to coordinate the different craftsman effectively. Therefore, it makes sense to ask the architect to also estimate the renovation costs to submit to the bank for approval.

Thanks @mbaluda, we were discussing the same with @Sirob some posts back, and I see both of your points. The challenge is to get the architect to be engaged early and quickly
