There still doesn't seem to be a good flooring for rentals

... except ceramic or porcelain tile.

I've been researching what to replace the remaining bedroom carpet with, and I've been looking for an alternative to labor-intensive ceramic tile.

This property has a concrete slab.

The most common complaints I have seen for luxury vinyl plank are splitting seams. Split seams trap dirt. 

So you have 2 problems with vinyl plank... lighter colors hide scratches, but if you have a split seam, the gap and dirt are very noticeable.

If you have vinyl plank, especially the solid core vinyl planks, in your rentals.... how have they held up over the years ??

You're buying the junk vinyl plank. If it's less than $3/sqft it will be junk. Lifeproof, ridged core, waterproof. Do not buy anything with any type of wood in them.
