An architect charges a standard percentage fee. To make the math easier, let's start at 10 percent. So if the cost to build a 2,500-square-foot house is $500,000, the architect's fee would be $50,000. If you double the cost to $1 million because you are building a 5,000-square-foot house with more design features, the percentage fee charged by most architects would go down to about 8 percent, or $80,000.
Cost Of Architects. Architect costs can vary greatly, depending on the size of your project, what you want the architect to do and the individual architectâs fee structure. An architect may charge by the hour, by the square foot or by a percentage of the total cost of the project. These rates can vary by location, but at a minimum, youâll need to spend $800 to $1,000 to hire an architect to review and approve blueprints and other construction documents if you need a licensed architectâs approval.
