My first flip!

Very excited to start my first flip. 4 Bed rambler in the Seattle area. I have a few questions:

Home was built in the 60s. The original hardwood floor in the common areas and bedrooms. And two layers of carpet over that. Is it more cost-effective to resurface the original hardwood or just get new flooring throughout?

I'm planning to start the projects with the exterior first, then moving inside. Does anyone have a different process? What projects do you save for last?

What is the one best way you've found to save money when flipping?

Can't wait to see it finished! Thanks everyone.
