Is changing kitchen counter tops worth the money for a lower tier home?

I have been renovating my kitchen, and most of the main floor for that matter, over the last few years making it look nice. I took good care in doing high quality work on the drywall, paint, trim work, flooring, etc. My counter tops are cheap laminate particle board ones you would get at any home improvement store but they arent the nicest looking, dated color, and pretty beat up ( Picture of kitchen from last year when it was clean. New flooring is done and trim around cupboards is done https://imgur.com/a/okgEnQi ) If I replaced the counters I wouldnt get anything fancy, basically a direct replacement of the same materials but different style and new to freshen it up. Its quite a small counter space, so I dont imagine it would be super expensive. I could easily install it myself as well im sure. Would it be worth replacing it for resale value or to try to improve appeal? Im not going to be refinishing and painting the cupboards at all.

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...
