The "finishes" on a home can often run 40% of the budget or more. The building department doesn't care about finishes but if it is in the plans they want to see it on final.

I recommend you concentrate on a lockable, weather-tight shell. Power one, water on. Basic fixtures: tub/sinks. At that point you have a house and can get your final. You can take your time turning it into a home. Watch for sales, get bids on the fancy stuff or do it yourself.

"Turn key" can mean anything unless you have a firm and comprehensive set of specifications.
Assume the best and ask questions.
