Good idea to switch to Luxury Vinyl Tile flooring from Wooden?

Hello,

I had a partly damaged wooden floor in one of my rentals five years ago but I did not do a good job back then  hiring the right contractor as I was a noob and back then they installed prefinished flooring with completely contrasting very dark flooring stain, also while they ripped  of the flooring in the room they applied it as a patch  in one of the sections in living room where the flooring was damaged. Overall, the flooring looks patchy in in the apartment and I am afraid this may impact the value while selling.Even if I don't sell now and continue renting would it be a good idea for me to install Luxury Vinyl Tile flooring (LVT) on top of the existing wooden floor?How much does it cost to install 1400 SQFT? Would LVT also negatively impact the sale price now or in the forseeable future?Appreciate your inputs.

Thanks
