Carpet Before Laminate?

Andrew Tuquilar

I bought my first forclosure a couple months ago that I plan on living in it while I finish the rehab.  I have yet to do the flooring, but plan on putting carpet in the living room and bedrooms and wood laminate on the rest. 

I was thinking of installing the carpet first in order to have the living room and bedroom liveable and then install the laminate while I live there.  I know it is recomended to do the opposite, but do you guys see a problem with this.  Since I will be putting T-strips down for the tranistion, does it really matter?

Thanks,

Andrew
