My recommendations:
For a home with a garage pushed out to one side, add a rear door and 6'x8' concrete pad (relocate the ac unit to do this). This way the door can be screened and opened for the best garage ventilation. Later the pad can have some brick added as a decorative wall. This can be used as a grilling area or a place to hide a garbage can.
If you have a pool or anticipate one add extra garden hose bibs. Typically a home has two or three. You will want extra outside of the pool area. I have six, five would have been enough.
If the budget allows have the home plumbed and wired for an exterior kitchen.
