I think your budget is reasonable, but your time expectation is not.
I’ve hired many freelancers and their projects tend to take longer than expected. They’ll do something, ask you to test, you’ll find errors or code quality problems, they’ll fix and repeat. You can get good quality work out of freelancers if you are patient, but if you are in a hurry, you’ll be disappointed.
If you are in a hurry, it is better to do it yourself with ChatGPT’s help. Getting code that you can test within milliseconds instead of weeks, makes ChatGPT much better than a freelancer.
If you really want to use a freelancer and want it done fast, then you’ll probably need to pay the freelancer per hour and will have to budget $50 per hour or more.
