I'm kind of picky though.Just beware of the clay soils and basements - probably lots of leaky ones and possibly moved foundations.  

Additionally, we have sandy soils that are very good for septic systems.

They have been incredibly helpful and communicative, have even helped me with bids for topo and soil studies. the owner and his wife came out personally to my lot as part of the feasibility study and this was only $500 which is credited if I go with them.

There was a little wall/dropoff where the leveling compund ended and the original floor remained so i had to use floor mortar to feather it down....still when walking on the new LVP, i can tell where the dropoff is/was.SO, next time i will 1. make the SLC more runny, 2. on a small job (500sf) ill plan to cover the entire space with the SLC so there are no transitions, and 3. the LVP with the underlayment attached seemed to work great on the portion of the floor that was on slab, but feels cheap to walk on in other areas - so next time i will most likely go with a product that allows a thick underlayment to go own underneath it.The last thing i learned was that the 1/4" gap around the borders that is recommedned is too generous as it is almost impossible to hit on the nose.

You'll also want to be careful of any subdivisions on prairie soil as that can cause a lot of foundation problems that can be very expensive! 

What's more, there's a garage with a basement underneath it.

@John Vietmeyer We have them in our primary residence. (1 GSP and 2 labs) They are durable and resistant to scratches, we also picked the ones with a greywash to help hide any scratches from the dogs.I don't recall if ours is 6.3mm thick, but the original padding that was underneath made the flooring sound hollow, so we replaced it with a thicker pad and it solved the issue. 

And expansive soils are not known etc etc.and as long as you have earthquake straps your good to go

Dallas area is full of expansive soils.

I do soil studies and provide foundation recommendations as well as any other pertinant earth design requirements for a site (retaining walls, dams, pavement, etc).
