Great in rentals, looks like wood and very durable.

Since your house would be constructed of all glass siding, durable non-glass siding would be available for an extra charge.

[b]Read that the Refinish material is not very durable and will not endure abrasive soaps / scouring pads etc.

The ones that slide like hotel/motel blinds are even more durable.

I think you're setting yourself up for disappointment if you expect it to perform well given the nature of stairs.Lately I've been putting laminate in my rentals and have had great success with durability and eye appeal.

Durable Goods Orders and New Home Sales both reporting in strong for July.

I generally make upgrades and repairs with durability in mind.

I try to stick to cheap durable carpet that hides most stains.

As for the vinyl flooring, it might be better to think about replacing with tile floors as they are more durable, especially if tenants are moving their own washer and dryer.

Luckily have a repair guy/contractor that invests himself and had been taking care of the property for the previous owner so he has really helped with repairs and upgrades (buying cheap but durable materials, etc)All in all a very good year.
