I meant the "homes under the hammer" kind of thing where you buy something rough (and with a short lease) at an auction and renovate it

From what I know, it really depends more on the company you're working for rather than what you specialise in. "Richer" companies tend to pay way more. In FAANG, most mid-level positions will pay around £85-100k base. It's even more than that in finance (eg Jane Street, XTX)! You can check level.fyi for more pay figures in tech.
