Daughter selling a home with huge electrical towers running next to the one acre property. My dad would say there is an a$$ for every toilet seat. What % of buyers would say the wires are a no go on buying the otherwise nice home?

There are some people who believe that living near high tension electrical wires causes all kinds of health issues and wouldn't buy the house even if your daughter put it on the market for $1.00
Of course your dad is right about there being an azz for every toilet, lol.
There are also a lot of people who don't give an arse about living by the towers and will buy the house if it appeals to them. I've bought homes by high tension wires and I've rejected homes by high tension wires--but not because of the wires themselves.
I'm not sure of an exact percentage but I don't think that it would be that high...
bigger problem aesthetically than scientifically. There are those scared to death of high voltage lines. But that is pretty much irrational as you get more exposure from the wiring in your house than a high tension line 60 yards away.
But they are ugly and detract from the property. Once had a client couple get into a real snit when they failed to get a high voltage line property after they made a quite reasonable bid...they did not care but unfortunately neither did the opposing bidder. I was actually amazed.
