I’m starting to look into building a small guest house in my backyard, but every contractor I call gives me a completely different price. One says $150k, another says $300k. How do I get a realistic idea of the budget before I start paying for architectural plans?

Don't trust those random over-the-phone quotes; they never include site prep or city fees. When I started my project, I used the Aduscale adu cost calculator to get a real sense of the numbers. It’s great because it factors in your specific location and constraints rather than just giving a sales pitch. It definitely helped me avoid some nasty financial surprises later on!
