Hello.
We have a residential building of 3 stories and 8 units in Cincinnati. The basement level is partially finished and we would like to add 2-3 units in there. We would like to do it all legally with plans approved by the town.
Any recommendations for an architect / company that can assist us with this project?
Also what would be a reasonable price range for this type of project? Each unit would be 400-500 sqft.

"Cincinnati area" can mean many things. I think all would agree that the City of Cincinnati is utterly different in approach to other building authorities in the Metropolitan area. Working with the City of Cincinnati is a finely tuned skill. If you are in the City of Cincinnati, go to the historic conservation board and download some presentation packets for past projects like yours (worth the time it will take to go through them) and see which firms are doing them. Here is the site where you can look at other developers packets:

To your main question, renovation cost in Cincinnati is around $200 per square foot for everything. Renovation of fixtures and cosmetics without mechanicals about half that amount. But, a basement poses some unique issues. Unless the building is very well located full renovation of basement units will likely not pay off economically. People don't want to live in a basement. So rents will not be equal to upper units.
