GAS or ELECTRIC appliances

[Lance Wakefield]

I am doing a new build in a C+ area the exit cost of the house is around 150k. Should I pay the additional $1500 for gas appliances? Or should I just keep everything to stay electric. I know it hurts long term efficiency but it saves on building costs. I just don't know what consumers would want in a low income area like that or if they care.

Personally if it's low income I would leave electric. This lightens the burden on the resident on one less deposit in most cases when turning on utilities at the same time saves you the added expense of the gas appliance. Just my .02 though....
