LVT or real hardwood in a nice rental?

[Lisa Moon]

Just closed on a nice 4/2 that we're going to rent out long-term for the cash flow. We need to tear out the awful carpet, but are debating real hardwood versus a wood-looking LVT (luxury vinyl tile). You can't beat the LVT for wear-and-tear, but if we ever sell, this neighborhood calls for hardwood. Price would be about the same either way. Any thoughts??
