ᐅ Feasibility Assessment: Multi-Family Residential Building Design by Architect?

Dear community,

We are considering whether it would be possible to build a small multi-family house (2 residential units) on a plot of land. Due to the characteristics of the lot (quite narrow but very deep, with property line building restrictions unlikely), it is not entirely clear to us as non-experts whether and especially how such a project could be realized. What is the best way to approach this? For example, could we have an architect create designs to assess feasibility?

What costs should we expect? Are there other ways to evaluate the feasibility?

Thank you very much for your advice!

Ask architects for a quote; then you will know for sure.

Is it possible to have something roughly designed here? What would that cost?
No, there are no architects here.

"Here" meaning at an architect's office, not here in the forum.

At the bakery, you get bread; at the butcher, meat; and from the architect, house designs—so yes. It’s best to choose one with whom you “click,” so they can not only create the design but also support you during the construction process.

The development plan is available, and there are also some two- and three-family houses in the neighborhood.
I don’t see anything.

Can you just get a rough design done here?
Yes, you can. With an architect, this is called a preliminary design. According to the HOAI, this includes individual service phases (for example, basic evaluation). So you don’t have to fully design the house before realizing that you can’t afford it or that it wouldn’t be profitable as a rental property, or other issues.

Costs will be around 1 to 1.5 million euros without the land.
