6-day rescue planChecked 25 July 2026 · prices can move
Move in by July 31.
Buy less. Decide faster.
A couple-facing plan for turning an empty renovation into a safe, functional first home—without panic-buying permanent furniture or hiding unresolved site risks.
Default assumption: adults move first; Manu follows only after the child-safety gate passes. Change this in Decision 01.
01
Safety is not a bridge.Structure, electricity, sanitation, egress and hidden ceiling work stay red until verified.
02
Furniture can wait.Use a real mattress, portable fans and folding furniture while the couple learns the space.
03
No silent assumptions.Old geometry, ceiling-fan positions and the neutral-wire status are explicitly unresolved.
Do this before shopping

The fastest path is one fresh site walkthrough, eight couple decisions and four phone calls—not an open-ended online hunt.

No-go means no overnight occupancy
10 hard gates
Tick a gate only after the named evidence exists. If one required gate remains red on July 31, stage delivered goods in a clean locked room and keep the current sleeping arrangement.
0/9cleared
Timestamped walkthrough: ceiling, every room, both baths, kitchen, panel, locks, roof/leak areas and remaining work.
The last verified project snapshot is Jul 23. Shopping cannot prove the house is occupiable.
Written or recorded confirmation that the removed bedroom partition was non-load-bearing, or remediation complete.
No temporary bridge. This is the documented structural unknown.
Every hidden run, junction and blocking point photographed with a tape measure; Carlo explicitly releases board closure.
Do not close the living-room ceiling before this is green.
Walk the actual route. It does not cross an open ceiling, active tools, debris, paint or a dusty work zone.
The old floor plan cannot prove this because two walls have since been demolished.
Safe covered panel; grounding/protection; no exposed live conductors; fridge and counter circuits identified; outlets and lights tested under normal load.
Physically verify neutral wires at every switch box—the records conflict.
At least one toilet flushes; one sink and shower run and drain; no active leaks; water pressure checked.
Run every fixture long enough to expose slow drains or leaks.
No active leak or unsafe overhead condition in occupied areas; roof inspected before any coating.
Rain is plausible this week. Protect appliance and mattress deliveries from moisture.
Sanding, cutting and painting finished in accessible occupied areas; tools, chemicals and debris removed; deep-clean and ventilation complete.
Do not deliver mattresses or soft goods into active construction dust.
Working locks; openable keyed bedroom grille; smoke alarms after dust/paint; kitchen heat alarm; charged extinguisher; exit lighting.
Alarms installed before dusty work will nuisance-trigger and can be damaged.
Stair gates, non-climbable balusters ≤10 cm, outlet and corner protection, safe chemical storage and a dedicated baby monitor.
Required only if Manu is part of the first move. Do not silently assume a nursery room.
Keep visible
Three unresolved project conflicts
Ceiling fans
One plan requires living/dining provisions; a later lighting note says no living fan. Install fan-rated provisions while open; actual fans remain undecided.
Neutral wires
Renovation memory says complete; technical A3 is unticked. An electrician must physically verify every switch box.
CCTV positions
The referenced plan is missing. Locate or rebuild positions before cable runs; this does not block buying household goods.
Recommended choice first
The couple’s 8 decisions
Each card has one default, at most two alternatives, a deadline and the consequence of delay. A changed choice resets both agreement checks.
0 agreed8 open
Decision 01 · Decide today
Who moves first?
The household files mention Manu, but they do not say whether Manu moves on Jul 31. The conservative default protects the deadline without weakening child safety.
If delayed: If unresolved, plan for adults first and keep the Manu gate red.
Household goods only
A live, editable buying plan
The basket keeps verified listings separate from estimates. Delivery, installation and stock must be reconfirmed before payment; prices were checked July 25.
Horizon buttons reset the basket to recommended defaults. You can then add or remove any line.

What “moved in” actually means
First-night rehearsal
Do this together on July 30, after cleaning. A pass means the house works for one ordinary evening and one emergency exit—not that the renovation is complete.
Arrive after dark
Unlock gate and door; walk the exit route with normal lighting and one flashlight.
Use the bathroom
Flush, shower, run sink, watch drains and check for leaks or slippery paths.
Run normal loads
Fridge, lights and one cooking appliance operate on their verified circuits without heat, smell or trips.
Prepare one meal
Cook, wash up, manage waste and confirm safe drinking water—without an extension on high-draw appliances.
Sleep environment
Clean mattress and linen, privacy, fan stability, phone charging and smoke/heat alarms all ready.
Emergency exit
Both adults can open locks and the keyed bedroom grille; keys and extinguisher are visible and reachable.
Copy-paste Viber brief
Omar’s site command
This keeps the move-in deadline direct while preserving the ceiling, neutral-wire and geometry warnings already in the project record.
Audit trail
Assumptions, price confidence and sources
The dashboard distinguishes project facts, current retailer listings and planning allowances. Nothing has been purchased, reserved or transmitted to a retailer.
House and renovation state
The local project files govern geometry, status, money and irreversible work. Last site snapshot: Jul 23. The 53 m² open-plan room and the two retained bedroom ceilings guide only broad strategy—not furniture placement.
Price and stock
“Live price” means the product page was checked Jul 25. Stock and promotion badges can change; call the branch and get an exact delivery or pickup commitment before paying.
Not a quote
Linens, cleaning, bath, logistics and permanent furniture use round planning allowances. Replace them with receipts or written quotes as purchases happen.
Keep goods dry
PAGASA’s Jul 24 weekly outlook allows for rain in Metro Manila during the window. Roof/leak checks and covered delivery staging remain ahead of mattresses and appliances.
