Looking to build a new 30' x 25' garage in my backyard and would like to get a rough idea of cost. It will be stick framed, gambrel roof 8' on center & 7' at the folds. Stairs up to the "attic" which will be an office. No tub but maybe a toilet. Vinyl siding is fine too.

I'm guessing 10-15k?
 
Sounds a little low to me. That's about $20/sf @ $15K. I got a quote of around $17/sf on a pole barn type building. Did you want a floor? That will likely be $5/sf in addition to the garage cost.

Time to get some bids!
 
Are you providing the labor? Where are you located, it will make a big difference in costs. 15K might be possible, but sounds optimistic. I just had a 21' x 34' garage with 6" floor with 36" footers, 9 foot walls, scissors truss roof structure, 16' X 8' insulated garage door, basic electrical package, Hardie board cement siding and an additional 10' of drive added for a cost of $23500 in Ohio.
