Help Please Rehab project cost

[Sam Alberry]

So here is my 1st SOW submitted to me . This is a contractor who fits the bill as far as the best practice of going to home depot or Lowes and finding a contractor who is there first thing in the morning I have received email communications as early as 4 in the morning he has 2 crews been in business for 20 years . I will admit though going through J Scotts book the estimate came in a little high I thought (and yes I looked at the high as well as the low) . I will admit I do not know the exact sq footage of the exterior but the interior is 974 sq feet . The SOW also missed putting in a washer and dryer hookup in the basement I believe he told me that would be $500 . The total estimate for the project was $26,555 he does want 50% up front for some of the work which would be $3,290.

I am interested in any feedback I could get. I did have the house assessed at 125k . I am trying to get a feel from all of you if you think the quote is in line .When I went through and figured out pricing I thought 15-20k for the whole thing and his estimate didn't include a new shower installed and a new Garage door that I need to have put in . When I include all that I am looking at 30k which is a little more than I felt I would be spending . I am just trying to obtain opinions on if I just miscalculated a little or if you all feel the same that it is just a little high especially all of the contractors out there .

Thanks everyone! have a great Day!

I am going to get a 2nd and 3rd SOW to see how it compares
