What would bring more attention/equity: 1) updating a kitchen or 2) finishing a backyard? Let me elaborate on the two...

1) The kitchen is only ~4 years old and still looks great. All of the appliances are new and match, but the counters/backslash are bland and the craftsmanship is so-so on the countertop tiles (the grout is uneven and some of the edge tiles are layed unevenly. The only other improvement I could see is flooring.

2) The backyard is only half done and is small and lacks function and flow. There used to be a small grass area, but it died and did not make sense for the size of the yard in the first place. I wanted to put in a new patio, overhang, and possibly a built in BBQ/outdoor kitchen.

Which should be the priority?

Thanks,
Dave
