Wow, I think all of your ideas are great! While you're in high school, I wonder whether you could get a part time job with one of these entities? I am afraid they mostly want trained construction personnel though
If you were to get a summer job or unpaid internship with an architect that would also be great. If you can't get an internship with a for profit company, maybe you could get an internship with a non profit low income housing agency, or another non profit that happens to be building their new headquarters, etc.
You definitely are thinking in the right direction!
For how much $ does it take to start the business… you will find that you need all the "usual" costs, like rent, employees, etc. but that for any construction company it will take a large insurance cost, or "bond," because there is so much to ruin or people to hurt, beyond the cost of the project, when you are working on construction. That will take a little research for you.
Carpentry is your best foundation. It takes $20,000 cash and a $250,000 bond to start a remodeling company. And a license..
