There is guy up here in my area of Idaho that all he does is excavate
under existing houses. We were going to add onto our house and looked into doing this. We are on a slope and have 5.5 ft clearance under the house on one side down to two feet on the other. The cost was about $30 more per square foot, around $140 per square foot total. Since a normal addition was $110 per sq ft we just added onto the back of the house with a daylight basement addition. Now that it's done, we are very happy to have the extra space.

I would suggest calling a contractor and they might know someone.
