Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is an Owner’s Representative in construction?

An Owner’s Representative is a construction expert who acts on behalf of the property owner or developer during a construction project. We manage contractors, monitor budgets, review documents, and ensure that every phase of the project aligns with your goals, timeline, and budget.

Why should I hire an Owner’s Rep for my construction project?

Hiring an Owner’s Rep reduces your risk of delays, cost overruns, and construction defects. You gain a construction expert who works solely in your best interest; helping you make informed decisions and avoid costly mistakes throughout your real estate development.

What’s the difference between a general contractor and an Owner’s Rep?

A general contractor builds the project, while an Owner’s Representative oversees the entire process from the owner’s side. We make sure the contractor is doing their job correctly and that your project is built according to plan, budget, and quality standards.

Do you offer Owner’s Representative services in both South Florida and Southwest Florida?

Yes. Cloud Design Build proudly offers Owner’s Representative Services in both South Florida (including Miami, Miami Beach, Fort Lauderdale, West Palm Beach, and neighboring areas) and Southwest Florida (including Naples, Fort Myers, Cape Coral, and Punta Gorda). We understand regional building codes, permitting processes, and local construction challenges in both areas.

When is the best time to hire a Construction Owner’s Representative?

Ideally, an Owner’s Rep should be involved as early as the design phase; before you hire contractors or finalize budgets. However, we can step in at any point during your construction project to provide oversight and problem-solving.
