Repair Estimate for Pottstown Home

[Donielle Houston]

Hi!

My husband and I got our first appointment after our first call to a seller. We went to see the house yesterday and it's a complete gut job.  We did not have a contractor go with us, because we do not know one in the area yet. We used the Realeflow.com repair estimator and it came up to about $85,000. 

Is there anyone here who is familar with the Pottstown, PA area? How much does it typically cost to renovate a home in need of a complete gut job? The house is:

1440 Sqft

3 bedrooms

1 bathroom

Lot size 4200 sqft

Is my estimate way off? Thanks for your help and advice.
