I am in the process of getting a second and third architectural drafting quotation for a 2 double story (side by side) townhouse development in Melbourne. The first quote has come in at $3,900 PLUS GST. Below is a scope for the work. Is this a reasonable price to be paying for the work provided? Are there any questions I should be asking prior to signing the dotted line?
