Help choosing flooring
I am remodeling a 1000 square foot 2 bedroom, 2 bath, apartment style condo. I have installed laminate wood flooring in the kitchen and the hall. It is a nice light natural maple in color. I still need to do the living room/dining area. I was planning to use a darker laminate in the LR/DR but have now decided to sell the unit when I am done. Would it be more attractive to more people if the entire place had the same maple flooring? If I don't use the maple what is popular now.
Thank you.
Thank you.

personally, i'd want carpet (berber) in the LR & bedrooms and more of the same laminate in the DR.
i don't think you could go wrong doing it all in the laminate though. i'd stick with the same color though, not some light & some dark.
you won't be able to please all of the people though.

While carpet still has a fair share of the floor covering market, more and more consumers are going with hard surface floor coverings for a variety of reasons--ease of maintenance, allergies, etc. For continuity, it is best to have the same color floor covering throughout if going with laminate.
