I actually knew one seller who replaced perfectly good laminate countertops with granite because their sales agent told them to do it.

The OP didn't state he is currently living in the house, no realtor is pushing him for anything and he wants to do a FSBO. Geez..
I would never, for all the homes we bought and sold, stick a buyer with the worst roofing product I could find to save some nickels. If you've maintained the PV property with terminite/bug contracts, it's clean and in a nice neighborhood with an adequate new roof and have it reasonably priced, it will sell. If it smells, it will be with you for a long time. We would only buy an older patio villa north of 466A for upgrading or investment purposes.
