[quote=Anonymous]I like the look of wood, but am also concerned with maintenance. Personally when we redo in the next year or so I am going to shop based on low maintenance first, and then look & price. I'm very much a 'function first' person. Some great ideas for materials are here: http://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/27854353/list/7-low-maintenance-countertops-for-your-dream-kitchen Also with a 7-8 year time horizon I think you should focus on what YOU like, especially for easily changeable items like countertops, paint colors, etc. With that time horizon I'd think about resale for fundamental issues like overall house layout, # of bedrooms, general population who would be looking at your house (is this for seniors or young families), etc. but much less for style type decisions which are so personal and change so much over time.[/quote]
