That's why it's good to make yourself a list, and decide what is a "must have", and what would just be nice, and then figure out how much each thing would be to have installed prior to the house being built vs. how much it would be later.

For example if you are short money for the telecommunications connections, you can have central vac roughed into each room and then you have conduit for future upgrades.

For my sewer in the garage idea, you'd have to ask yourself how much you would use it. My buddy who is a mechanic swears by it, but if the garage is just the place to park the cars so you don't get frost on the windows, it isn't that big of a deal.
