running a 220 line
You are really underestimating the cost to do this.
This is true to an extent unless you have access to a 220 line close.
Do you have 220 upstairs now? Is it close?
Or will a line need to be run from breaker panel to the upstairs location? Will walls need to be opened and then refinished?
Lots of variables and they all add to the cost.
All that said, I think it is still too high but I am a DIYer not a contractor who has payroll, insurance etc to meet.

That really depends. In my house there wouldn't be much issue running a 240v home run to anywhere on my second floor. Up the garage wall into the attic then into the second-floor attic and drop where you need it. Easy peasy.
On the inwall side the biggest issue I can see is the lav will likely have a 1.5" drain and you really want a 2" drain for a washing machine. Depending on what is behind and below the lav it might not be that hard or it might be a nightmare. A much bigger deal than running Romex to pretty much anywhere in a house.
