Flooring Options
Our standard routine between tenants was repairs, paint, flooring.
The last time I had an empty, my flooring guy made an odd comment to me. He said, "You're one of the last owners that puts carpeting in." That got me thinking...
I have a traditional, center entrance, 2 up, 2 down , all the same 2br floor plan, seen one, seen em all, 1960-ish City of Milwaukee four family.
We've always carpeted the living room, hall and bedrooms. Am I being foolish? Should I just have the hardwood floors and that's it? It sure would save a bunch of money.
Thank you,
Arnie

Go with vinyl plank flooring that looks like hardwood. More durable. My favorite is TrafficMaster Allure Ultra.
