I'll try to nail down more specifics in the coming days.

Those types should be nailed, IMO.

Natalie Kasak you hit the nail on the head..

@David Jackson - you nailed it and that is exactly the scenario I'm trying to avoid.

Wouldn't society be better off if folks had to go to the church and look a community in the eye to get help--and be required to give help in return (i.e. show up on saturdays to help hammer nails in the house being given to a needy soldier)?

Like you keep saying, it’s a lot of variables to really nail down.

Roof first, you dont need the debris, dirt and ladders against your new siding, no matter how much they tarp or plywood it off.Windows/siding, depends on type of windows your using, new builds which have flanges to nail to wall sheeting go before siding, if using inserts which nail inside old window frames, do whenever.

Bill Exeter and Dave T nailed it.Ned Carey, exactly, there is no limit; however, you have to look at a practicality standpoint.

No nails in woodwork, etc.- Are utilities included?

J Scott, you nailed it for me:" one of the things I do like about real estate specifically, is that there's so much to know/learn that I always have the option to try something new or put another twist on what I'm already doing.
