What people are saying.

  • I was looking to buy some raw land in Western NJ in order to get a custom modern home built. Peter and May were a hugely helpful part of the process. They helped me anticipate and address issues with wetlands, zoning, and permitting.

    Above all, the best part of working with them was that they didn't just tell me what they thought I wanted to hear - they told me the tough things that I needed to hear in order to keep the project running smoothly. In the end that's what you really want from someone who you've hired to provide guidance and insight - the honest truth.

    Throughout every step of the process I knew that they always had my best interests at heart. They were responsive, knowledgeable, and most importantly, helped me to avoid some issues that others had missed.

    I would wholeheartedly recommend working with Peter and May (but selfishly hope that you don't so that they'll be available for my future projects!)

  • MAOR's extensive knowledge of the Hudson Valley area and its regulations was invaluable. Although we did our own research, MAOR highlighted critical aspects we hadn't considered, helping us avoid numerous pitfalls. Their expert consultation helped us understand what we could build on each lot and recommended builders we could speak to, saving us significant time and effort. We highly recommend their services for anyone needing informed and efficient architectural guidance.

  • May and Peter provide practical advice and have extensive contacts in the industry. They helped me quickly solve an easement issue that had caused significant confusion between us and our neighbors, that also acted as a potential bottleneck to us being able to complete our home renovation. They then helped us analyze our town's planning and zoning code, arranged meetings with the right people, and gave us clear guidelines on what we could and couldn't do. They then put us in touch with the right engineers and builders and helped us negotiate our contracts with them. Now we're well under way with a project that we previously thought wasn't possible.
