OP, here.  Thanks for all the comments.  I'm really torn.  I agree with what many have said, I'm house hunting too and detest it when people throw on a new countertop, call it renovated and jack up the price.  Yes, the idea of doing updates is coming in part from the realtor we talked too.  As someone mentioned, the kitchen sets the tone, especially when it's the first rm you see, like our home.  Our counters are a most hideous light nondescript beigeiish formica and the floor tiles have cracked.  We aren't trying to hide anything, we spent the money else where in the house but we want it too look nice.  We have a neighbor on the market whose house is nearly identical and they didn't do the kitchen - same ugly countertops. It's been sitting over a month.  We're thinking maybe some updates to the ugliest things in our house will help.  We are not planning on raising the price based on the kitchen, just want to get it sold.  Based on our neighbor's house, I'm getting the impression that many buyers lack the imagination, $, time, and/or desire to do. As someone said, they have kids and not time to do updates. (Although we are planning on buying a house that needs updated so we can make it our own.) Please keep ideas coming - be specific as possible.  [/quote]
