Should I convert to baseboard heating?

I have a duplex that has two really old gas furnaces that are about to die on me. Instead of dropping $6000 on two new ones, I have contemplated replacing the heating with baseboard electric heat throughout. 

This place seems harder to rent with it being gas, so converting to electric would help keep it rented. I already have multiple houses with baseboard heating and I love not having to change filters and not having to worry about replacing an expensive furnace. The AC is window units. I'm looking to hold these very long term as rentals. Any info would be appreciated. Thank you.
