        "text": "Yes, minor non-structural repairs can often be phased room by room, but major utility, framing, and drywall overhauls are best completed before moving in. Foreclosures frequently have widespread interior issues, such as missing drywall patches, unsealed plumbing lines, or unfinished subfloors. Addressing rough carpentry, bathroom tiling, and whole-house interior painting prior to occupancy prevents living amidst constant dust and construction debris. However, if budget limits require a staged approach, you can prioritize securing the building envelope, resolving bathroom and kitchen essentials first, and leaving secondary living areas or basement finishes for a later phase.",
