Putting in new windows in a rental property

Hey guys. I am putting in new windows in my rental property in Milwaukee in a B class area. Most things I have read online suggest going with basic single hung vinyl windows. I plan on simply buying stock windows myself at lowes, home depot, or menards and then have my contractor install them for me. 

What brand did you use in your rental property and how much did you spend? I'm trying to keep this as inexpensive as possible while still getting something that will last for a rental property.

Hands down, Marvin Integrity. Little price difference vs. vinyl (well, a "good" vinyl) with the all ultrex option and it is a superior material. Far better performance and eventual resale. I have installed the ultrex exterior/ wood interior in my own home.  

Marvin Integrity used to be a 10 day turnaround from order to delivery for the ultrex product line. Just recently it has been bumped to 6 weeks due to demand for the product. What does that tell you? 

Zuerns building products is our area distributor.  Great guys. 

good luck!
