I’m also going to recommend the ryobi line for a homeowner. While the dewalt, Milwaukee, Bosch, makita, are the vp tractor grade, ryobi products have crept up.
They are also very inexpensive for combo packs, they have more than 130 tools in the same battery line, and if one breaks, you can typically just Home Depot exchange. If their lower end line doesn’t end up cutting it, they have a higher end brushless line of tools that I do know a bunch of contractors use.
I’m not daily contractor use, but extreme DIY, landlord, 1-2 major remodel or additions per year type use. The homeowner grade ryobi drill and impact driver aren’t the best, they’ve had some overheating problems with heavy use, but they haven’t “failed” yet. The other tools have been more than adequate.
In your position, you may also want to consider Milwaukee’s 12v line. I end up using my 12v more than my 18v for most things anyway. Their 12v line has a ton of tool options and are high quality. You’ll spend more money, and you probably don’t need something at this level, but they are super nice.
