Flooring on fix and flip (Orange County, CA market

[Account Closed]

4 bed 3 bath 3000 sqft house built in 1990 located in coastal orange county. Deciding on flooring options. Any thoughts and opinions on the ROI for hardwood vs. a solid LVP? Thank you. California haters need not comment. Were not all commies.

Im a South OC real estate agent that works with a lot of buyers. I can tell you from the buyer prospective - everyone seems to now embrace Luxury vinyl so you should be fine. My advice though is to be extra selective with the color. Do not buy one just because it’s on sale ... make sure the color is not too grey and not too red either. Just a really neutral light grey light tan blend will appeal to the huge majority of buyers. I see flips where the flooring is too grey (too trendy and not everyone’s favorite anymore). Or too yellow/red - buyers want a neutral light oak looking floor. Also don’t pick one with a super high shine - buyers prefer the dull real wood look.  Good luck! 👍
