There are always multiple good answers to these questions. The things I see missing from your list (most beginners miss these) are a jointer and dust collection. Dust collection should always be ITEM 1 on any tool wish list. Your shop vac will collect chips (I have a couple of vacs with Dust Deputies for this service) but, with nothing collecting the dust you will want to wear a respirator most of the time. This becomes more true as the space gets smaller or less ventilated. This is a sore spot for me so, I will leave it alone now ;-)
A disclaimer: This opinion is coming from a tablesaw anchored woodworker. My tablesaw is a joinery machine in my shop and is critical to how I work so, keep that in mind when I say . . .
I would give up the tablesaw for a jointer if I had to pick one or the other. With a good bandsaw and a jointer and a planer I can make most furniture parts. If sheet-goods construction is in your future, a tablesaw or guided circular saw system is pretty much required. If you are building hardwood furniture, not so much. The jointer sets the reference surface for all following operations. A planer sled can get you by for face jointing (it got me by for over a year) and may be a concession you need to make for space restrictions.
To the job site versus contractor saw argument, there are a couple (maybe a few?) contractor saws that are a large step up from a job site saw. Many are not. There are many things that are "better" with a contractor saw (table size, room before the blade, standard miter slots) but, most have alignment problems, poor fences and miter gauges.
You can throw a couple of hundred bucks of after-market goodies at some contractor saws and make them very usable. I went this route as I was not sure I would stick with my return to woodworking. I ended up spending much more to finally step my way to a cabinet saw than simply buying a cabinet saw would have cost. That was my path and those decisions made sense at the time. If I knew then what I know now I would have gotten by for a few months and then bought once and for all . . . once. We can all only do what we can do based on our situation at the time.
This is an exciting time in you journey into the craft. Enjoy!
