Help With Updating (Pics)

I want to do some updating in my 1/1 condo before I get ready to sell it. I need to make it look better than any of the other units that are there. Most of them look just like mine. (Old) So what are some of the things I can do to make it look real nice.

I plan on doing some painting, adding tile in the kitchen & bathroom & carpet in the rest of the place.

I would like to do something with the cabinets that are in the kitchen & would like to replace the counter tops with something newer looking.

I would like to keep it as chaep as possible too....

Please excuse all the cluter since it is being rented at the time.

I don't think the cabinets look too bad. The knobs would help. Also consider stainless appliances and range hood. Are the floors vinyl or tile? Tile would make a big difference.

Don't put more into it than you think you can get out of it in the sale. IE: Don't spend 7k updating to end up with 5k in increased sale price.
