Is there an industry standard website that contains range of average repair/replacement costs (roofing, appliances, HVAC, structural, etc..)? Thanks.

I would not estimate costs of repairs, even though I know some do. It could be Uncle Ed doing a faucet repair for $50, or a licensed, insured contractor at $275. The range is endless, and low esimates will result in phone calls to you. Just refer to a contractor of the buyer's choosing. Let them decide how much to pay. It is against ethics for you to do the repairs. Your job is to just inform. IMHO.

I wish we didnt have to give estiamates, but it is a way of life here in south Fl. i always put a range and then a little blurb that states that the final cost will be determined by the repairing contractor. i also let all clients know that these are just estimates and do not include any hidden damage and advise that they get written estimates asap so they have a true cost of repairs.

In NC we are not allowed and honestly that is one of the few rules I like. I do not want the client calling me saying you said it would be this, but this contractor said it is going to be that.
