ᐅ Better to avoid wallpaper when moving in for the first time?

In our new build, the discussion about painting versus wallpapering has come up. Since we want all the walls to be white anyway (usually textured wallpaper that is painted white), we were advised not to wallpaper the first time but just to paint. This way, the walls could dry out better. Is there any truth to that, and does it actually look good? Or perhaps only in the bathroom above the tiles? I find it hard to imagine this in the living area.

I assumed the walls are plastered...
I would have them skim coated and painted. And what exactly do you want to skim coat there??? You can skim coat drywall in a timber frame house, but not plaster. That would be absolutely nonsensical.

How is a Q4 finish achieved in interior construction?
It involves multiple rounds of filling and sanding, followed by painting...
Full-surface filling, then sanding and finally covering with painter’s fleece is quite common nowadays, isn’t it?!
