I know it depends alot of square feet and other factors, but what is a general rule of thumb? I'm looking at houses right now and basically, I will not buy a house without a finished basement. I've noticed that alot of houses are significantly cheaper that I like, but the only thing that gets me away from them is not having a finished basement. I'm kinda in a time crunch, because my FHA 4.7% interest rate only lasts for so long. Hell of a time to buy a house right now.

I don't want to put a room down there or anything. Don't really need a bathroom either. Just a wet bar, some good chiefs memorabilia, and make it a nice rec room. BTW, I am not handy at all. Unless it's something I can learn in a weekend, I ain't doin' it. Any good reputable companies around here that specialize in that kind of thing?
