He said the cabinets were covered with veneer. Painting would not be a
smart
option, unless your goal is for prospective buyers to whisper to
themselves
"Jeez...what a cob job....next house".


And he also said they look ok. I'd fix any things that were not ok and
would clearly detract from the sale. Sounds like the bathroom vanity
fits that description. As for the kitchen cabinets, IMO, unless they
stand out as noticeably bad, I wouldn't fool around with them. To do a
decent job, it's going to cost a lot more than a couple hundred bucks.
And who knows if what you wind up with is what a buyer wants anyway.
Personally, I'd prefer to do my own upgrade after I purchased the house
rather than have someone else choose what to do.
