Does anybody recommend a specific brand & product when it comes to purchasing LVP for a rental property?

Based on my research I'm hearing you need something

5-mm or greater for the thickness of the plank

12 mils or greater for the thickness of the wear layer

any thoughts or recommendations?

I've also read that you should put down floor underlayment regardless of the type of plank you buy, is that also true?

I understand that everybody will have their own personal experience with this but it's more than mine at this point lol

Hello all,

For all rental units that I have and manage for I use the Allure brand. It is stocked at home depot and has never given me an issue. I order this stuff by the pallet and get better pricing as well. It is only 3mm thick, but I have never had that cause an issue within a unit. You get a couple of different color options to match your style and can even use it on walls as it works with drywall. Allure Home Depot Link
