Decide which of three home renovation projects to tackle first

Three projects are on the list, the budget only stretches to one this year, and getting the order wrong could mean redoing work later or living with a worsening problem in the meantime. This weighs each project on quality of life now, cost of delay, and whether one needs to happen before another can sensibly follow, then gives you a full order, not just a winner. For anyone about to start the wrong project first.

You have three home improvement projects in mind and a limited budget and time for this year, and need to decide which one goes first. List {THREE_PROJECTS} below, each with a rough cost estimate and why you want to do it. Weigh each project on: how much daily quality of life it improves right now, whether delaying it risks the problem getting worse or more expensive, and whether it needs to happen before another project could sensibly follow it (for example, rewiring before redecorating). Recommend an order for all three, not just a single winner, with one sentence justifying the order.
