Smart Select · Advisor-led review

Expert review for better cost and quality.

Every plan dimension, quote line, material spec, and agreement clause changes what you pay and what gets built. Smart Select gives each project a Kolo advisor to review those details before you commit.

02 / How it works

From the first call to every sign-off.

One advisor stays with your project for the length of your plan, and the review happens before each commitment, not after.

  1. Step 01

    Book a consultation

    Most homeowners start here: share where your project is and we confirm which plan fits.

  2. Step 02

    Pick your plan

    Guide Basic, Guide Premium or Assure: 3, 6 or 12 months of support. Pay securely via Razorpay after the consultation, or straight from the plan card.

  3. Step 03

    Meet your advisor

    The team gets in touch to onboard you and assigns your advisor: an architect, civil or structural engineer.

  4. Step 04

    Review before you commit

    Plans, quotes, materials and the contract are checked before each is locked. Pause and resume with the project.
