Price early, price often, and hand the owner a budget that holds up at the bank and on the jobsite.
The best way to protect a construction budget is to understand it long before anyone breaks ground. That is the whole purpose of preconstruction, and it is where Aghorn Interests, LLC does its most valuable work.
We start pricing at the concept stage and keep pricing as the drawings develop, so surprises surface on paper, where they are cheap to solve, instead of in the field, where they are not. By the time your set is ready to permit, you have a number you can finance against and a schedule you can plan around, built by the same Keller, Texas team that will run the job. The firm was founded in 2010 by Basil J. Privett, a Texas A&M–trained builder, and that estimating discipline has been at the center of how we work ever since.

// Budget & schedule review
From the first conceptual budget to a locked price and a buildable schedule, this is the work we do before the shovels arrive.
Three things a disciplined preconstruction effort buys an owner before a single footing is poured.
We price the work early and refine it at every design milestone, so the figure you carry to a lender is the figure we hold ourselves to. Whether you need a guaranteed maximum price or a hard-bid number, you get a budget you can finance without guessing.
Reviewing the drawings for how they actually get built catches conflicts, gaps, and expensive details while they are still lines on paper. Value engineering and smart material alternates then trim cost without quietly trimming the quality of the building.
A master schedule with clear phasing tells everyone what happens and when. Planning permits and long-lead procurement up front keeps a slow submittal or a back-ordered material from becoming the reason the certificate of occupancy slips.
Bring us the concept, the drawings, or the site. We will build you a budget and a schedule you can plan around.
