The Home fee cost plus contract formula in Cook is a structured agreement between a Contractor and Owner for residential construction projects. This form outlines the scope of work, work site details, necessary permits, and insurance requirements, ensuring clear responsibilities and expectations for both parties. Key features include a provision for changes to the scope of work, which allows the Owner to modify plans via a written Change Order, with costs adjusted accordingly. The Contractor's compensation can be structured as either cost plus or fixed fee, offering flexibility based on the Project's financial arrangements. Filling instructions emphasize the need to insert specific project details and payment terms clearly in designated areas. This form is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants involved in construction law, providing a solid foundation for negotiations and compliance with local regulations. It helps streamline communication between the Contractor and Owner while safeguarding legal interests during construction projects.
