M buddy just spent 125K upgrading his home. New heat/AC, windows, flooring, about 45K went into the kitchen. It was what THEY liked, not with interest of resale. Most realtors will tell you put money into windows, decks, heating, dont waste it on kitchens and bathrooms. Because like every "house hunter" reality show every wife that walks into the kitchen will say "ewww!!" those cabinets have to go, I dont like the counter top, etc. Its the truth. House next to mine was redone top to bottom. they had an open house which we went to. The kitchen was stunning and almost every wife that came in said "Oh, I dont like the color, ewww, those appliances are not good". It was scary true. Do what you like now...its not going to matter later on.
