That might be a more expensive area, and it does depend on whether the work is being done on the basement interior or on the basement exterior, and it also depends on the type of foundation that supports the basement walls.

Agreed with Jon that -- without knowing more details -- the rehab could certainly be higher than $75K.If prices were the same as in my area and with my contractors, I would expect the prices for the things you mentioned to be somewhere in the area of:- Electrical: $6000- Foundation: $3000-10,000 (depending on scope)- HVAC: $6000-10,000- Plumbing: $2000-6000- Sheetrock/Insulation: $6000-8000So, you're looking at $25-40K just on those things.And that doesn't include:- Demo/Dumpsters- Permits- Windows- Doors- Carpentry- Paint- Flooring- Cabinets- Countertops- Baths/Showers- Finishes/Fixtures- AppliancesAnd that doesn't even address the exterior.In my area $40-45 per square foot is about right...if it's historical, I would guess Jon is right on at $50K/sf, or maybe even a bit more if there is a lot of historical restrictions imposed by the jurisdiction.
