Guess choosing basic carpet everywhere possible is the cheapest way to proceed with upgrading to tile flooring later; omit what we can or select the least expensive options. Cabinets, sinks, countertops, and shower, we are thinking those are the “keepers” and we should choose best of what’s available not replacing later.
Has anyone followed a similar strategy and can say they are happy with the results (choices, costs, and quality of third party workmanship)?

Very smart choice
Do not buy appliances from the builder either
You will avoid paying real estate taxes on the upgrades
