All these ideas are good for learning to draw in place--in general a good idea. But when you really get to making house models, you need to start using components of doors and windows to take advantage of SU's features, and add a lot of (reproducible and modifiable) detail with less work.

I'd fix your wall junction before adding trim
-
My way of doing it is draw a 2D profile of the door jamb on the floor. It will have the outside & inside trim, frame and door stop. Make the 2D profile a closed group. Edit the group and trace the path of the door opening. Select the path, select "follow me" then click the 2D profile.

Wow! This is so smart! Thank you! ❤

Make the opening too big then draw the trim as one long element. It’s quicker, neater, less geometry and easier to modify.
-
After the offset, you can drag line to wall edge so you only erase one time
-
Depends on what kind of door you are doing. For minimalism you just need the jamb. Door casing for contemporary or classic styles.
