The Construction Cost Plus form is a comprehensive contract that establishes an agreement between a Contractor and an Owner for the construction of a residential project. Key features include detailed sections on the scope of work, work site, and the responsibilities of both parties regarding permits and insurance. This form allows for flexibility as it includes options for cost-plus or fixed-fee payment structures, catering to varying financial arrangements. The Owner commits to pay the actual costs incurred by the Contractor along with a specified fee, with provisions for late payment penalties. Important edits involve inserting specific project details and costs where indicated. This form serves as a vital tool for Attorneys, Partners, Owners, Associates, Paralegals, and Legal Assistants engaged in construction projects, ensuring clarity on obligations and protecting against disputes. It is particularly useful for managing additional costs due to changes in project scope, further safeguarding the financial interests of all parties involved.
