That seems really cheap. Even for a small house it seems really cheap. Are they reusing the same tile or does that include new shingles? How many square feet? I did a re-roof on about 300sf section of my roof and replaced several roof vents and i thought it was almost $3000.

My last roof replacement was about 1000sqft in 2021. It required climbing gear due to the pitch. I did the architectural shingles. I bought materials which were about 3k. I gave the roofer a double axle trailer and $1500. So about 7k total. I received 28k from insurance for a tree falling on my house. We fixed the trusses in a couple hours. So I made about 21k on that deal.

I used insurance and it was 25K in 2020.

Seems very cheap. Last one I did was about a decade ago and it was something like $12k.

SLC UT area, 5700 sqft house was quoted $25000.

Mine was $18k 6 years ago

Agreed. My sister just paid 30k for a small cape cod style house in the northeast. 7-8 is crazy cheap

$18k for 3500 sq ft in Dallas

I’m in Dallas and have been renting for 5 years. I don’t have any savings, but have about 30k in my 401k. Im thinking about leveraging that to buy a condo/or house. Is that a good idea or am I in over my head? I mostly want to, because I’m tired of renting and I’ve read reports that prices will only continue to go up. Although, I will have to pay back the 401k + pay rent, so maybe not a good idea. Advice/resources would be helpful.
