New 200 Amp Service In Tacoma

Good morning everyone. I just bought my first house. It's going to have to be a House Hack because I'm not quite ready to BRRRR capital wise. So I'll be fixing what I can room by room over the next 6 months to a year.

I need to update my service panel from 100 amps to 200 amps. With this being my first property, I don’t have any idea about the cost of pretty much anything that will need to be updated or replaced.

Can anyone give me a price range of what I should expect to pay to upgrade my service to 200 amps?

@Seth Borman thank you for taking the time to respond to my post.

I’m not trying to add anything. But the previous owner had some work done and the electrician has two different breakers that are double tapped. I know there are double tapped breakers but I doubt these breakers in my panel are rated for such. And there’s no more room in the panel to add any more breakers. And the wires are undersized for a 70 amp breaker.
