Luxury vinyl plank or engineered hardwood?!

We’re building a detached 750sqft 2/1 ADU in the Bay Area and it will be a rental initially. I would love opinions on whether to put in luxury vinyl plank flooring or engineered hardwood? I understand many of the pros and cons but am still undecided. It’s a mid to high end rental in a nice neighborhood so looking to do mid level furnishings.

I installed luxury vinyl plank in both of my rentals and I love it. Make sure whatever luxury vinyl plank you get is waterproof, that is key. I was also able to install the luxury vinyl plank myself, so if you are a DIY sort of person that is a plus.
