Estimate of repairs for southside Chicago
I am wondering if anyone has a handle on what the price per square foot for repairs should be assumed for fixers in southside of Chicago.

@Patrick Britton it varies depending on the contractor you choose, of course, but, for a 4bd 2ba sfr, you are looking at about 50k for a gut (add 10k if any roofing or tuckpointing is needed), 20-30K (maybe less if you get a discount on labor) if its just a few cosmetics but needs new plumbing or electricity, and about 10k for cosmetics only.
