Cost to build a basic “matching” style web app MVP?

I’m validating an idea and thinking of building a very lightweight MVP web app.

Think something similar to a basic matching platform where users: create a profile browse other profiles express interest if both users match → they can connect on whatsapp

No chat system initially, just profile + match logic.

Curious what people think the rough cost and timeline would be for something like this if built by a freelance developer.

Trying to understand the cost of this and find people who can help me build this.

Any insight from people who’ve built MVP marketplaces would be super helpful.
