    Your question is too vague..........in rehabbing it really depends on the needs of the project itself.

    Just as there is not general rule of thumb on how much a rehab will cost to fix, there is not set order.

    1)Foundation if structural is needed
    2)Walls
    3)Roof
    4)Electrical
    5)Dry-wall
    6)Paint
    7)Flooring
    8)Fittings(ceiling fans, lights)
    9)Kitchen/bathroom

    This is general, and assumes house needs TOTAL rehab. As NC_Yank said, every rehab's different, but this is a general recipe.

    You do things in logical order, usually the preference is what won't get wrecked by doing something else. - You put in flooring last- makes sense right?

    If you are gutting a kitche, paint the walls before you put up the cabinets - alot easier to slap paint on a blank wall then cut around everything right?

    If you are going to have to tear open a wall, I would not paint it first, why do it twice?
