Split face vs Regular CMU Block

[Ivan Burley]

Hey guys.  It's been a while since I've posted anything. Been pretty busy getting my first new construction project underway.  With that, I have a question concerning my block foundation.  I hope you guys can give me a little insight. 

I'm debating whether to use a split face block or a regular cmu block.  Obviously there's a considerable cost difference.   Also there is the visual effect.  I've read that split face can be a problem if not sealed and maintained properly. 

My question is whether or not the cost to use all split face, as opposed to split face on the front only, would yield a larger return upon selling.  It would be much more cost effective to use regular block but I just don't want to leave money on the table when it comes time to sell.

All input is welcome.  That's In advance.
