On the other side of the equation, metal buildings can be put up on site (including poured concrete flooring) for WELL less than 1/3

I think you should get some more quotes. I just built a 22x22 "no frills wood garage" with 1x2 applied to painted plywood walls to give it the board and batten look.and a floating concrete slab. Total cost under $6000 . That includes 2 -9x7 insulated doors ,excavation,slab,truss roof, shingles etc
With the economy the way it is I would think you could find someone on craigslist to build for you way less than 36K
