Here in Chicago, you should expect a range from $200-$275/SF, depending on the location, experience, labor, and material finish level.Are you in a position where you already own some land, or what is your current situation?

Ask an attorney for the cost breakdown, factor in holding costs, assume they'll do more damage on the way out and then ask for a bit more for the headache.But again, especially with no experience with evictions and it sounding like a mess, I would be very tempted to just walk if the tenant is not going to cooperate.
