Wow guys thanks a lot for the information/help so far, that's all great!
Just as more background, this place was built in 2008 and in addition to the stock unit the previous owners updated the flooring from carpet to laminate hardwood and the kitchen cabinets to a more modern mocha colour.
Most units in our condo do NOT have the upgrades I'm talking about, in fact I'd be surprised if any of them do (some have the laminate hardwood and kitchen cabinet upgrades though).
The bathroom and kitchen are tiled, every other area of the unit is laminate hardwood.
In my opinion the granite countertops in the kitchen and bathroom would NOT look out of place which is why I'm considering them...I'm not a very construction/carpentry-savy guy so this will all have to be done by someone so I guess what's holding me back is figuring out what the cost will be to do so and if it makes sense.
If bizaro86's estimate for the bathroom is true, that definitely sounds like a no brainer, I'm just curious now about costs for the kitchen to be done...anyone else with any info or directions on where to go get some good estimates?
Again, thanks all for the help so far!
