I would be willing to pay an initial setup fee followed by some maintenance fee. I would expect the initial fee to be significant due to a custom setup/requirements. (I am talking just setup, not cost of hardware/ physical installation).

Unique home network with 2 managed switches.

Self hosted security DVR, automated computer backup, photo backup, network drive for document storage and then self hosting a Jellyfin server along with a torrent service.

(I am sweating just thinking about trying to set that up)

Storage will be a RAID setup where I can just upgrade by throwing a new drive into an open slot and replace (as necessary) existing drives by just swapping them out and server automatically handles the data management.

I have a VAGUE idea of what that takes

Maintenance would cover service calls to resolve problems due to security updates/patches, end of life upgrades, normal planned maintenance type of stuff.

User caused issues should be extra :) (i.e. I was just trying to install a Minecraft server)

Couple hundred bucks, at least, for setup. And that seems cheap.

I would pay $10-20 a month for a maintenance fee after an initial setup fee.

I would MUCH rather give my money to an individual sysadmin than a corporate megalith that will use my membership to force an arbitration clause to any future service of theirs I use. Fuck the mouse. Fuck em all. I tried to do it right and that still want enough for them.
