Where to I start on the reno. It needs everything

Posted

I am very excited about my first purchase.

Now going into the rehab. I was wondering since the whole house has to be done, what is the best order to do the projects, to be most efficient and the least amount in each other's way? 

Roof asap and some rotted wood. While they are working on top, I think I can start inside as well. Or is it too much commotion and traffic in the house? 

Bath and paint at the same time, I would like to cover up the popcorn ceilings throughout and give it a nice fresh coat of paint so first ceiling sheetrock, then ceiling paint, than wall paint, should trim and door frames come before wall paint? The master bath needs tiles, new vanity, & a tub. The 2nd bathtub I hope to be able to reglace and safe, new vanity and sink. 
Flooring next, since I am doing the whole house 1200sqft ranch in the same LVP, where in the house should I start?
