Someone I know bought a house in NJ that needed a lot of work. He reached out to a legal Hispanic, the brother of an acquaintance. He was offered a cut rate deal of $30,000. Then he reached out to local illegsls, and got the entire job - new bathroom, tearing diwn walls, etc. — for $3,000. I call that a significant difference.

I call it economic warfare waged by illegals against Americans by foreign invaders. I live in NJ, I used to work in the home building industry. I’ve seen how illegals undercut American contractors all the time. And it’s not just some guy in a pick-up truck hiring illegals. Toll Brothers hires them, through sub-contractors, Hovnainain , Ryan Homes, all the big builders hire them.

Doesn’t work where I live. We have sooo many illegals that their prices aren’t that much lower than a regular company now if you look around. I know people who have hired illegals and could have used an American company for the same price more or less.
Awhile back I called someone to get a bid on trimming a huge tree in the front yard. I knew he was probably an illegal because he wasn’t licensed, just left a card on my front door. After I got his price (from his daughter because he spoke very little English) I called my regular tree company. There was a $75 dollar difference. That is cheap to have someone licensed, insured, and hires Americans in my opinion.
