        "text": "Yes, replacing your only bathtub with a walk-in shower can affect your home's appeal to buyers with young children, while potentially increasing appeal to buyers seeking modern accessibility. In a primary bathroom, walk-in showers are often preferred for daily convenience and visual openness. However, retaining at least one functional bathtub elsewhere in the house—such as in a guest or hall bathroom—helps preserve broad market appeal. If your home has multiple bathrooms, converting the primary bath to a custom tile walk-in shower while keeping a secondary tub offers the best balance of everyday utility and resale value.",
