How to Estimate Cost of Demolition

Hey Everyone,

Realtor in Brooklyn and Long Island NY, and I have an off-market property lead to source to my developers, but I don't know how to estimate cost of demolition. If it was on a 25x100 lot in South Slope and was a 2 story duplex with siding, what would that cost be to demolish? I am good at estimating cost to build, haven't done it the other way around. Any insight helps !

I'd guess $12,000 - $15,000, including the utility work - based on my experiences in SoCal.....
