Countertop matertials

Hi,

I've done accident BRRRRs before (before I knew it was a tactic) but now I'm getting ready to do my first intentional one. 

It needs numerous updates, mostly cosmetic but some substantial, including new countertops. My question: what is the most durable (tenant-proof) yet cost effective material? I'm looking at approximately 170 sq. ft. of counter area. Granite would be just under 1K or I could go corian (durable but it burns) or laminate and just plan on replacing every few years. Thanks for any ideas!
