General Real Estate
As a Florida licensed real estate brokerage, Kidwell & Associates acts as a Transaction Broker, working with you to find that specific home you're looking for. We work with agents throughout the bay area to find that specific property best meeting your objectives, and guide you through the purchase process. We also have working relationships with several associate categories that come into play: lenders, inspectors, title companies,appraisers,surveyors to name a few. Purchasing real estate is a complicated process involving trained, knowledgeable, licensed professionals. DO NOT DO IT ALONE. There are still people trying to sell unbuildable lots in Florida!! The small fee we charge sellers while working as a Transaction Broker is well worth it.

Design/Build
Here we formulate your plans starting with land review to design and through construction. A budget is established. Then we review your homesite criteria such as flood zone, wind zone, trees, covenants and restrictions and a host of other criteria. These items, along with your "wish list" and specifications, create your home design. From there it goes to architecture - but before engineering we review it with you in case there are changes. Then comes permitting and physical construction. Should you require financing, we work with your lender's schedule.

Construction Management
We also provide, for a fixed monthly fee, services pertinent to your project. You pay the bills directly to the venders WITH NO MARK-UP.

Renovation, where unexpected items or changes during the process result as work progresses (soils testing, structure issues, engineering, drainage, addition to scope of work, etc.) would be a candidate for construction management. We handle bids, scheduling, changes (no change fees), inspections, approve vender work and invoice amounts.

This can also be used for new construction where you're a cash buyer and anticipate making changes as work progresses.
