What is best option for remodeling bathrooms when it comes to resale value?

Question:  From a selling stand point is it better to have a house with 2-1/2 baths where 2 of them are extremely small (one being the master)  or converting Two into One and having a new large master bath?

When looking at a listing on a house it would be more attractive to have a home with 2- ½  bathrooms there is no question.  However if a prospective buyer looks at the house and sees that two of the bathrooms are very small and outdated it could be a deal killer.  Also you have to make sure that spending money on a bathroom remodel will increase the sale price of the home equally or more.   A large master bath is ideal for most home buyers, and spending the money in this area can yield a return on investment in most cases. If you are not planning to put the house on the market for a few years then the remodel is going to be for your benefit anyhow, not for  the next owner.
