I’m going through this right now on a flip as well, had old 3/8” hardwood that I had planned to get refinished but there’s so many patches where walls have been moved, kitchen didn’t have hardwood before and beat up from Reno’s in spots that I’m ripping it all up and putting down engineered hardwood..

It's approximately 1150 sqft of flooring that will be replaced, we were thinking about switching the main hallway and living room to something else like engineered hard wood or vinyl or something but really arent sure what's best for renting or if we should just keep it all as carpet.

Lots of room, high ceilings, plaster walls, hardwood floors and so forth.When I purchased it I upgraded the electrical service, windows, plumbing, replaced the old gas space heaters with electrical baseboard heat, and recoated the tin roof.
