Durable and Timeless Materials

[Matt Kitchen]

I just finished BP podcast ep. 48 and the guest gave a lot of good advice, but one piece he gave that stuck out is that he buys durable materials that aren't just "trendy". They withstand the test of time financially and physically. In you experience, what kinds of materials have you used that match this description? Anything cosmetic, from flooring, cabinets, paint, countertops, etc. (Not looking for quartz and Brazilian hardwoods. The price of the duplex is $120k)
