$2000 seems like alot of money to cut a tree, i got multiple trees cut down for £600
It depends on how close it is to the house. I'm in a low cost of living area in the US and my neighbor has a tree that's going to be over $3k to bring down. If it can't be felled they have to bring in a crane and take it apart one piece at a time. Lots of equipment costs and very skilled and dangerous work
We have huge oaks that sit between the house and the road. And a neighbor's fence on a third side. If we ever wanted those taken down it would be a costly nightmare as they'd basically have to crane it out in pieces. And an oak has a lot of pieces.
Or just be very lucky. I cut a tree down when I was 15 between my mom's garage and fence. No idea why she trusted me, maybe because we were on food stamps and couldn't afford to have it cut down. I spent a day on the Internet looking at videos and guides. Thankfully after I had it down my neighbor helped me chop it up and wasn't made I had it fall in part of his yard.
Different country, different costs I'd imagine.
There are a ton of variables involved in pricing. Every case is different.
Are you insured or free time gigs?
It's like 15-20 dollars in my country
For an insured, qualified, responsible professional? Seems unlikely.
