Vinyl flooring that looks like hardwood?
I was just up on Canada visiting family and manage to go see a few listings just for fun. I noticed some of the developers are using a vinyl flooring that looks like hardwood. It was beautiful flooring and actually fooled me into thinking it was hardwood. They were using it in living rooms and kitchens and then carpeting the rooms. I was told it's a new product that they are trying out. Does anyone have experience with this type of flooring. My thinking is that it would be a great cheaper alternative to use for a flip or a buy and hold property. What you think?

Canadian realtors who see this stuff alot. It is great! It clips together like laminate and is flexble great to work with, water proof and easy to clean. Although it is not a cheap alternative laminate is cheaper, its best function is rentals. High durability, relatively cheap and water proof!
