They want someone? to fill in the holes, not make new ones...     

I did warn him about you, apparently the last caretaker fell down one of your holes never to be seen again...  

Seemed pretty high to me too Bob, perhaps they added the value of the 2BRM unit into that amount, it did say up to, I suppose that depended on what duties you did.   It is a mining town so they might have trouble getting locals to fill the position, working at the mines is probably more lucrative.

Edit:   Just checked to see if it had been put on GN Help Wanted as I had suggested to them, here is more info here;
