How to buy a site?

Question

CMS

Now I started thinking about compiling a TOR, based on the answers in the previous topic ( https://toster.ru/q/274269) , but in parallel, while talking with a programmer, I discovered such a thing .. Some offer a similar site (like https: //www.google.com/express/)for 60-80k (I'm talking about the average price without drawing up a technical specification, with it + -20k, let's say) on a ready-made engine (for example, Drupal). Is it really the majority that does this, or is it still possible to find people for that kind of money (about 70k) who will do everything on their engine? And how does it even happen? I don't really understand. For in my understanding - a ready-made engine (he worked in wp) for that and ready, that everyone can figure it out there and no deep knowledge of programming is required. Also, I would like to clarify what is the adequate time frame for the implementation of the project? Some write in a month with a clear TOR, others 2-3 months.

I already sympathize in advance with the poor fellow who manages to work for you

Well, figure it out yourself. It will be totally free. )))
The following can underestimate the deadlines:
1. They make a mistake, they did not understand the task.
2. They want to start a project, and there you will not part with them, because it will be a pity for the money spent and time. Looking forward to getting involved in the project.
3. No reviews. Dampening. They want to get some work.
Overestimate:
1. They make a mistake, they did not understand the task.
2. Very experienced developers. They value themselves, and without your order they have a lot of work.
Either way, you'll get very different results.
Since the work is very individual, these are not items in the store (which are either similar or even the same).
The quality of work with the price is not always directly related.
The more accurate it will be. task - the less your risks.
Experienced people will not take it at all without those. assignments (well, or before starting work, they will compile it, talking with you - perhaps they will compile it for free or even for a separate money).
