Since I am doing a presentation with last minute notice, I would like to have a price list for various systems and componants that I can give as a handout.
I have seen these lists and could have sworn I saved one.
Something with prices on things like roofs and furnaces,that sort of thing.
Any link help would be appreciated.
Presentation is saturday morning.
Thanks
This is not a price list, but it’s great information.
I have this table in the back of my 64-page “Know Your Home” Manual which I give to all my clients.

Bob,
This may be duplicate info but you and others are welcome to copy for presentations.
Great info.
I found a PDF with life expectencies I had saved from NAHB and HUD but could not locate the price estimates.
This is a good way to remind them of the need to save for repair.
Thanks David ,it is a good minature for printing.
