    These are great lists. They are plentiful on the blog. Good to see you have a nice list to work with. You may want to visit Thomas's blog. He was absolutely thorough on TIPS for new builders.

    LOL!!!

    Just FYI....It may change a little, if you see my timeline, I've made changes as and when things were actually happening...For example, my PM said they do Ceramic tile first, and hardwood will go with carpet.

    This is a nice estimate but some PMs do things in a different order(for example when the trades people are available or when the shipment comes in.) your pm should be able to give you his schedule of events. Don't be upset if they don't do things in this order.
