What type of flooring is best to install if I want to sell my home in Bonita Springs?

For resale in Bonita Springs, the best flooring is usually the option that balances appearance, durability, and broad buyer appeal. Engineered hardwood is often a strong upgrade choice, while luxury vinyl plank works well when you want a more budget-friendly floor that still looks clean and modern.

What is the difference between engineered and solid hardwood?

Both have a real wood surface — the difference is what's underneath. Engineered hardwood has a real wood veneer over a cross-ply plywood or HDF core, making it more dimensionally stable and usable over more subfloor types including concrete. Solid hardwood is a single piece of wood throughout. Both can be refinished — solid more times, engineered once to several times depending on veneer thickness.
