To add to the post, I think it is also important to remember when to do what. For example, do not install those hardwoods before you paint with the sprayer. Or do not start landscaping first thing (do it last, though sod may need to go in a little early to fill in the lines).

Doing things in the wrong order will KILL your budget.

Also, one of the most important things you can do to help not flop is to make full use of your due diligence period. Make sure the inspections are done and use that time to create your timeline and budget. If the numbers do not work, walk.

You make the money when you buy. You get the money when you sell.

Good article and I’ll hit the Stumble button.
