I concur with the others, if you can eliminate carpet it might help resale. The high humidity causes homes with carpet to have that “Florida smell.” Personally I like hardwood over tile.

Ultimately it will come down to your preference, you have to live there, and your budget. But just because you have carpet there now doesn’t mean it must be replaced with same.
