Adding value to a kitchen
I'd like to add value to a kitchen of one of my properties. I"m not looking for a complete makeover costing thousands but just a few new features. Besides appliances, what would everyone recommend? Cabinets are good so that leaves flooring, counters, sink, light fixtures, etc. Thank you in advance for your advice.

You could add LED lighting installed hidden away under the cabinets, this provides a great look, extra light for working in the kitchen and adds value at a low cost.
If you're looking for new flooring, possibly look into buying bamboo floors as they're popular currently and thus are often over stocked and can be bought from a company like lumber liquidator for around 1/ per sqft.
This sink fixture is often the only thing needed for the sink to look new, getting one with a hands free feature would be an added cost item.
Another low cost-high reward option would be replacing the counter top and repaint the counters and cabinets.
Good luck!
