$2.50/ sq foot was about what I was seeing. I had three different folks give me quotes. one professional company, one guy who does it himself full time, and the guy I hired, who does it on the side. All three were $2 and change. I hired the last one, because he could work with my schedule.
the floor in the master bedroom closet had never been resurfaced, and had the original wax-based finish on it. When I stopped in that day, he must have had fifteen used-up sanding discs in a pile behind him. He definitely earned his money that day.
I was surprised by that cost as well. Although I am effectively a Minneapolis/St. Paul suburb, I did expect prices to be lower here than NY.
Good luck! I'm glad I could help.
that was my problem too. no deck, no hot tub, no electrical upgrades, no insulation in the attic, no second bathroom... but at least I could move in, and live in the house. The other stuff can wait.

I think the total that I had refinished was about 1,540 square feet. I opted to skip the stairs, and the two upstairs bedrooms for another time. they weren't in nearly as bad of shape as the rest of the house.
Pfft, we've been here like 13 years and are finally getting upgrades to the house done. When some people saw my kitchen remodel, they couldn't believe we still had the switches without that kill thing in them.
Congratulations!
expensive yes, but think of the potential for mods!
