Hi guys,
I am wanting to sell my unit soon. As you can see from the pic, the kitchen is ok but a bit 1990s (the pic is a bit distorted...I pasted together 3 pics so you could see the entire U-shape kitchen.
It bothers me that the stove is under the window and that the benchtops are a pinky-grey laminex. But will potential buyers really care?
If I relocated the stove (put in a ceramic cooktop, rangehood etc) and redid the benchtops would it really make that much difference to the sale price versus simply keeping the benchtops and existing layout and doing a simple touch-up like respraying my cupboards and retiling the splashback??
UPDATE: here's a bit more background info....It's a 1970s unit complex (i.e. brick rectangle). The inside of my unit looks "fresh". Not old but not super modern either. These 1970s units are bought by investors or people looking to get into the market.....mid 300s usually. I've seen a few that have been super-renovated but am not sure if it really adds to the bottom line.
