Post: Thick vinyl click wood look planks

I am wondering what people think is the best to use without breaking the bank for vinyl click wood planks. Not the thin ones. I looked at much older posts on this subject but there are more products all the time. I would really appreciate hearing about current experiences. & what is available these days. It's for the bottom story of a upper-middle class nice rental. I want the newer beigeish-gray finishes that look nice but are hardy n water resistant because of the vinyl top coat.Thanks a bunch!!

Yes there are lawsuits.
Also one against his supposedly vetted business partners and while he should have been, he was not sued himself because he is a client of the Attorneys handling the case. (hello- conflict of interest and scam to look like he was a victim too)
I went to a few Reddick network meetings.
You can google Reddick and lawsuit and you'll find lots of information.
Here are a few things I found

I went to a few meetings and something just didn't feel right with all of the "preferred agents and lenders and management companies". I smelled kick backs. And kick backs have to come from somewhere as in written into fees.

As a Christian myself, I also felt wary of how much he "used" that impression to his benefit. I would never use God to get people to go into business with me. The problem with some people is they think they can do whatever they want because they later ask for forgiveness and get it, slate clean. I'm not that kind of Christian.
He seemed like a nice guy but also something smarmy sales guy about him too.
I did read somewhere he has his Phd in Marketing.

I think he mislead many people and that makes me very sad. He encouraged people to just close their eyes and jump with faith. You should never invest like that. That is why everyone I met that was buying into it all had not been an investor before, he had to have mostly inexperienced people in order to sell his wares.
Oh and by the way, the real estate market always goes back down eventually, which then also lowers rents for an area. It was a bubble, people. There had to be a correction.
