Immigrants = Poor people from poor country to work poor paying jobs - Usually brown in colour.
To help the good white Australians investments rise and economy keep rolling so they can enjoy retirement......
Plus their offspring have been educated to well to do these jobs so need people with no skills or money so will do anything just to survive.

Cheers for that. I’m reassessing then I might take up Suitys offer to appraise my quote.

Feel free. More than happy to give some considered advice.
Don't forget that I'm the one that gives people quotes. I know what a customer wants and needs to know.
The more info provided, the less chance there is of conflict during the project.

Nah, not me.
I do the building, not the landscaping. In saying that, my next project I have included landscaping as well. First time ever!! Piece of piss.

Let's talk business.
Electrician? How big a building? I wouldnt feel comfortable taking on to big a job.

My house needs rewiring I am told. How much should I budget ?

How big is it? Is it single story? How is the switchboard?
I assume a small 3 bedda be about 4 - 5k.Pending on light fittings and where switches and stuff are mounted.Wall or woodwork. If in metal conduits or not.

In general the switchboard if old fuses and convert then perhaps $600-$1000.

I assume it's old cotton cable? That stuff is real bad. Dangerous.
Take photos if like and I can check out.

I did a job for one guy. They quoted him $3,200 to do the switchboard.
I did it for $750. Some people are ruthless and will RIP you.

It's a duplex.
Power needs to be supplied from poles I've already had installed from the front of each property, run to 2 new switchboards to each unit, then, all the electrical work inside, including data cabling. It's a small job.

I'd be interested certainly
