A Unique Washer/Dryer Situation

I'm under contract for a new construction quad and am trying to decide whether to purchase washers and dryers for the units (they have W/D hook ups). It seems like the existing multifamily population in my area is split, with some offering W/D and others just the hook ups. 

However, one of the owners who just purchased a neighboring quad asked if I would be interested in going in on a bulk W/D purchase, so there's a very good chance that comparable units (literally next door) will have W/Ds in them. With this being the case, I almost feel compelled to pick up W/Ds to remain competitive. Should I install W/Ds in my units?

Oh, and I should mention that water is on a master meter, if that makes a difference...

Based on your situation I would say yes especially given the fact your competition is offering them . No sense in having a severe amenity handicap in your market over 8-900 bucks in appliances
