Any thoughts on how the flooring should affect house price?

I think it's simply a matter of personal taste. We bought our home with carpeting, and although very nice I preferred wood flooring,so we changed it. Kept the carpeting in the bedrooms. Buy what you love and you won"t be sorry.No matter what you buy, it might not appeal to a new owner so I don't think it would make a difference in pricing your home for resale.
