If it was my house, and you asked me, I'd want wires, especially if it's an expensive home. Wires are generally better than wireless because the impact of interference, especially with modern cabling, is practically nil. And the odds of drops, bandwidth issues, etc... are also going to be practically nil.
If the homes are multilevel, there's another issue, wifi is normally intended to spread primarily horizontally so other floors may get crap signals. Plus you never know when that one room in the house is going to have a crap signal and that's going to be a bedroom, office, etc... that needs a signal.
We toured a new $2.25 million dollar home in the old neighborhood that we lived in near downtown Houston during their open house. It was the biggest, nicest, most expensive home in the neighborhood. It was outfitted with lots of high end appliances and had tons of smart features. It also had an upstairs closet with an 8" hole in the floor, and a cabinet the size of a small refrigerator full of gear and 50 cables running into the cabinet. The closet was essentially unusable as a closet, which also made the room unusable. That would have killed the deal for me.
