I would suggest that you have all you really need now. If as you are
working you find you really want or need additional tools, then that might
be the best time to buy them. The only power tool I would take to the job
as you describe it would be the circular saw, a good one.

A cheap hammer drill from Menards ~$29 and some tap con screws. I like them
better than the hilti on old and new construction.

If this is a "one time" thing stay away from the cordless tools. In a year
from now after sitting you'll go to use them and they will be shot.
