Make it a tub or make it a shower

We are in the process of buying our first rental property. The property only has 1 bathroom.  The Bathroom has what I would consider a large tiled shower area. In that area is also (randomly) a tub spigot.  We could rip out some of the tile and put in a tub or we can just put up glass and just have a shower. I think just putting up a glass wall might be cheaper but we are looking at the long game too. Also, I mean technically, would the home only have 2/3's of a bathroom if we go to list it in the future?  Which do you think would make the house more marketable?

So should we put in a tub or should we make it a shower only? 

Thanks,

Kyle Su

Quote from @Kyle McVay:

I recommend a tub/shower in at least one bathroom. If one bathroom is all you've got, then I would put in a tub/shower.
