What should I expect $ to renovate an abandoned home

Depends on finishes and structural changes. If you want to remove a load bearing wall to open up the floor plan it gets expensive. It also depends on what you find when you open up the walls. You can say the structure is solid but until you open it up you can't say for sure.

probably 30-50k

Probably double that... I spent probably 70-80k repairing my post flood home that was about 2k square feet

The sheetrock in one room near a screen door has surface mildew and mold from being closed up. More musty than anything.

I've knocked out a section of sheetrock on almost every wall and the structure is A+

The issue is an upstairs portion that would likely require a complete removal or redesign.

speaking of the surface mold, what can be done about that? I was looking at a 3/2 the other day that needs to be gutted and it the ceilings had surface mold on it.. Little green spots everywhere from being closed up.

Can anyone recommend anyone for that around iberville parish

Gutted a 1000 sq. ft. house. Tore out sheet rock throughout. Flooring in the bathroom. All new electrical from the box to outlets. All new plumbing plus tub, toilet sink and vanity. Replaced everything in the kitchen with new appliances and washer and dryer. The flooring was oak and refinished and put two coats of clear coat on it. All new lighting throughout including ceiling fans. Did most of the demo myself and painted the exterior and interior myself. Also did most of the wiring except what by law a licensed electrician had to do. Cost was somewhere between $30,000.00 to $35,000.00. Bought the house for 20,000.00 back in the early 90's and now worth over 100,000.00.
