LADBS pathway: standard plan check vs. express. Identify required approvals (HPOZ, hillside, coastal). Estimate permit timeline. Review Title 24 requirements.
Fixed-price proposal with scope, timeline, payment schedule, and warranty. If you proceed, preconstruction fee is credited toward construction contract.
