design one for yourself. think about your market. like in columbus we have infill lots at 30x120 and so we developed and designed a house for ourselves. we build the same house and continue to Make modifications. it's the only new build we offer to build for clients. that's just my opinion. architects we didn't even use we looked at national builder Floorplans and decided. our typical lot is 3000-4000 square feet that we build on

I am looking for a washer/drying (for clothes not dishes) that are designed to be installed in a kitchen under the cabinets.I know this is VERY unusual for Canada which is why I am having a hard time finding such a thing, but it is very common in Europe and Asia.I have a very small apartment with no washer/dryer and the cost to run the plumbing and electric is prohibitive so if I can fit one under the kitchen counters next to the sink it would make my life much easier.Anyone know of a model available in Canada?

Got an architect to design a   complete renovation inside and add a new floor.

I work full time in IT and my wife runs her own Interior Design business.

Can you hire a designated portfolio manager and/or different property management to buy back some of your time? 

I currently lead development efforts for a design/build firm, overseeing everything from financial analysis and underwriting to deal structuring and execution.
