Flooring in my first flip
I am closing on my first flip house in the Houston area on Thursday. It's a 3/2 in a pretty nice, standard mid-range community built in the late 70's. the ARV is $175K. I work for a flooring company and can get the material and labor myself, but am not sure if I should use a mid range vinyl plank for around $1/sf or WPC waterproof click product with a foam backing which is a step up and looks a little bit nicer but also costs about 3 times as much. Would it be worth it to spend the extra money on a little better of a product? It's probably $2K vs $5-6K
