Should I include Appliances?

Just purchased my first SFR. The property came with appliances. Trying to determine if I should leave them in as part of the rental or remove and have the tenant provide their own. Property management company is suggesting removing them. Needing some advice from the experienced Landlords. Thanks

@Bazie Bates I suggest looking around at the rental units that are your direct competition and see what appliances they are providing. If they are not providing appliances, then you can either decide not to keep these appliances or you could provide these and maybe consider increasing your monthly rent slightly.
The most common list of appliances that I've noticed landlords usually provide are - refrigerator, stove/oven, dishwasher, washer and dryer.
