Tub vs Handicap Accessible Shower

[Dj Grimes]

Hey BP,

My wife & I are getting ready to close and begin a live-in flip project in two weeks, and my contractor said that it might be more beneficial to install a handicap accessible shower with a bench as opposed to installing a new tub (the current tub needs replacing anyway). His reasoning is that is should increase the home value and appeal to more people. My only issue is that if we do the HA shower, then there won’t be a tub in the entire house (it’s 3 bed, 1.5 bath). Does anyone have any thoughts, recommendations, or experience with this topic?
