There’s a place near me that has nice used appliances, would be a good choice for a starter home or rental. If I was selling anything better than a starter home I’d drop an extra few hundred and pick out some pretty decent new ones, not low end and not $1000 each. I think buyers might also appreciate the fact that they are putting the cost of appliances into their low rate mortgage and not on their credit card.

This is a good point I hadn’t thought of 
I am including new appliances in my current rehab. But it is mainly because of the type of rehab and sale. I need the “oooh” and “ahh” factor to get top dollar in the area I am in. If I was rehabing a rental or in a “lower rent” part of town, then used appliances would make perfect sense. I believe it is the end product that determines which you use.
Great Thread! My wife and I were just discussing this topic the other day.

IMO if it was a rental i would put in new appliances, they will be cheaper in the end because they will last longer and have a much longer warranty, instead of having to replace used one every 2 or 3 years.
I do agree it all depends on the area you are rehabbing.
But I am still set on new ones not used.
If it is under $100,000 like in your case (sorry didn’t read it carefully) I would get less expensive appliances.
BUt you do need a few things in the house that surprises any prospective buyers.you might not get the money back but you definetely stand a chance to sell it quicker.
