[quote=Anonymous]Remind your husband that just because he thinks the kitchen is fine, doesn't mean potential buyers will agree. In general (yes, I'm stereotyping) it's going to be the woman who decides whether or not she can live with your kitchen, so he would be smart to listen to a woman's opinion on whether or not it needs to be renovated. Maybe get him to watch a few of those real estate shows on HG, where people are trying to sell their houses. He should learn pretty quickly that kitchens and baths are what sell homes (or cause them not to sell). Ask how he would feel if he ended up having to spend thousands of dollars on kitchen renovations just so your family could move. I'd be seriously pi$$ed if I had to shell out that kind of money on upgrades I'd never even get to enjoy. This is the argument that won over my husband when we did our kitchen reno this summer. Good luck! [/quote]
