Materials for House Hack.

Hello,

Thanks to all for such great information.  I am under contract to purchase my first duplex.  I am using a low down payment to live in one side for for a year and rent the other side out.  After the year is up, I will rent the whole place out and repeat. The house is in good shape but needs some work.  The bathrooms and kitchens need flooring.  The place needs to be painted and the one side needs a new kitchen.  I plan on keeping the place for a long time.  I want it to look nice inside to attract great tenants but I also want something that will hold up over time.  Any suggestions on the best materials for kitchen cabinets, bathroom vanities and flooring?   Thanks!
