Does Removing a Bathtub Hurt Home Value?

Quick answer

Removing a bathtub generally does not hurt home value as long as the home keeps at least one tub somewhere. Converting a rarely used or dated tub into an attractive walk-in shower often improves appeal. The main caution is a single-bathroom home, where removing the only tub can narrow your pool of buyers.

The one exception to watch

In a home with only one bathroom, keep the tub. In multi-bath homes, converting the right bathroom to a walk-in shower is usually a net positive for both daily life and resale.
