I have a neighbor who bought a worn out AC backhoe....based on a D14. It took an engine rebuild, a bunch of new seals, brakes. He brags about how it cost only 2000 dollars. but with the engine rebuild, I bet he has all of 4000, and if he works for a dollar an hour, he has all of 5000 in it. I've seen a lot of nice backhoes for 6000 to 7000. Condition is important. I think the CASE ones seem to be good deals at most auctions. You may also want to buy a bigger, better one, and sell it after a year or two. I did that when I built a house years ago. Got 500 more than I paid for it, and a year of use. Take Care
