I am currently looking for a Doctor with my Therapist to start HRT.
What is the safest methods?
Any questions that I should ask my Dr when or before I start to be the best informed.
What can I expect in terms of hair growth(not balding)? Will it slow down? Will I have less body hair like stomach and chest?
Should I wait to start laser or the other hair removal thing until after I start hormones?
What things should I look for that are bad in order to make sure I don't end up pushing daisies because I ignored a bad side effect?

The two primary dangers are liver damage and blood clots. Liver damage can be avoided by not self medicating and having regular doctor visits with blood draws to check for issues with your liver. Blood clots are rare when you have regular doctors visits. Any unexplained pain should be checked out because that is the sign of a possible problem.

The best method of taking hormones depends on what you are after and what works for you. I had pills which may result in the slowest growth but patches and injections all have tradeoffs.

Hair removal can start anytime you are ready and regrowth varies from person to person.

Most important, communicate with your doctor.

Once your testosterone drops and your estrogen levels pick up you should expect that it will stop balding (depending on whether you already have some it may or may not reverse the effects, depends on how far advanced it is). Body hair will decrease over time but you might want to help it along with laser and/or waxing. If your intention is to transition then I'd suggest starting beard removal ASAP - this takes forever, especially if you have to go through electrolysis... the last thing you want to do is grow your beard for treatment once you've transitioned to full time. For everything else, ask your endo for all relevant health info. Everything Dena said was spot on.
