On the topic of moving a house; the costs are not very "standard". Considerations need 
to be made on when to move, which route allows for the least amount of utilities in 
the way, what structures may need to be rebuilt after the move, what shape of lot is 
necessary for the house, etc.  Many times if the house has no historic significance 
the economics of move vs. rebuild (or demolish and rebuild), move often is less cost 
effective. I have participated in both types of projects and can honestly say if you 
can repair the house where it sits, you are better off. 

And by the way, just for a point of interest, the last building the city moved cost us 
WAY to much and is still vacant over a year later!! ;-)
