Where are you in your project?

Choose the stage that fits where you are now.

Before You Commit

Stage 1

Before you commit more time or money

Review Your Project

Rehab Budget Range & Execution Risk Snapshot

Free

Fast preliminary feasibility estimate for early-stage underwriting. Get a budget range, confidence level, risk flags, likely project category, timeline range, and next-step recommendation before execution surprises blow up the deal.

Investor Deal & Scope Review

$499

An underwriting opinion before earnest money: scope feasibility, a rough budget range with confidence levels, and the walk-away trigger. Decision-grade, not bid-grade.

Budget & Scope Review

$599

Line-item audit of an existing budget — yours, an investor pro-forma, or a contractor bid. Works pre-purchase (vetting a deal) or post-purchase (before bids and draws lock in).

Permit & Local Compliance Review

$399

See permit and code issues before they turn into project drag.

Contractor Fit Consultation

$349

Get a quick read on contractor fit before you hire the wrong team.

Before You Start

Stage 2

Before construction begins

Plan This Project

Contractor-Grade Budget

$1,799

No real budget yet? We BUILD one from scratch — full takeoffs, real trade-network unit costs, bid-ready spreadsheet. The budget a GC would put together, without hiring one.

Contractor Match & Bid Coordination

$1,499

We source vetted contractors that fit your scope, run a structured bid intake, and level the bids side-by-side so the award decision is easy.

Permit Administration

Permit submission, correction handling, and inspection coordination so paperwork drag does not slow the project once construction starts.

Materials & Logistics Setup

Purchasing, delivery sequencing, and materials responsibility scoped before the job starts so the schedule does not slip on supply timing.

Lender Scope & Bid Package

Scope-of-work and bid package built around your lender or capital partner so funding conversations and draw approvals start from cleaner support.

During Construction

Stage 3

Choose how much support you want while the project is active.

Run This Project

Phased Third-Party Inspections

Discrete quality checks at key construction phases — foundation, framing, pre-drywall, final — to catch defects before official inspection or draw approval blocks the project.

Foundation / footing inspection
Framing inspection
Pre-drywall MEP check
Final / punch-list inspection
Written report + photos per phase

Construction Oversight

You stay in control, and we help keep the project from drifting.

We do NOT manage contractors
We do NOT run the project

Reviews

What clients say after working with Southern Cities.

Real feedback on project support, construction guidance, and getting the right next step before the wrong spend happens.

We were about to sink more money in before they walked us through what was actually wrong. Saved us from a bad call.

Madison M

Broker/Investor

We just needed help on one piece, not a full build out. They stuck to what we asked for and did not push extras.

I

Iantha M

Investor

I needed something concrete to bring back to my buyer, not a maybe. They gave me a straight read and the deal kept moving.

Jethro A

Wholesaler

Permits and paperwork were eating up my week. They took it off my plate and the jobs stopped stalling.

Taquan P

Wholesaler

They did not try to sell us a huge scope we did not need. Just told us what to do next and why.

Scope and budget were all over the place when we called. After they walked through it, the project actually felt doable again.
