I have a really large list and would like to know what kind of designs (postcards/flyers/letters) you all have used before to get an idea from. 

The bottom line is that even though there's a list of designated activities there's a lot of room for discretion (unfortunately, discretion seems to be a one way street for the IRS).   

My 20+ years of design experience , is an asset when it comes to fixing, remodeling, Interior design and staging. 

This lets me design things that are realistic to implement.Outside of this, most of what I do is search forums like this, browse Houzz and Instagram, watch TV, etc to get a better sense of design trends, ideas, etc.

You have to wait weeks for approval of design and also subject to full inspection after each portion.

Plus, as I sell lighting, I work with a number of designers whom I'm sure could help me for a discount (as I do for them).I see guys do rehabs and put the "Hollywood Dressing Room" strips in the bathroom; how ugly and dated.

Also - just realized who the stellar op was ;) - let me know what type of design you're looking for and I might be able to put you in touch with the right person.I just hired a guy who is doing some webpage design templates for me, and another guy who did some phenomenal logo-style images!

One aspect of MFR re-positioning that has always intimidated me is the rehab phase.I don't feel like I really have a good eye for aesthetics in terms of design, colors, layout, and materials.I've done cosmetic upgrades before, but they were for A-class, single-family homes, so it was fairly easy since I could just choose stuff that I already have in my own home (hand-scraped hardwood floors, granite and marble surfaces, and brushed-nickel or bronzed finishes, etc.)

My future aspirations are to co-own or partner with a small boutique company that provides all these aspects of design and building new construction.My educational background is in Business Management and I do have a small portfolio of a few projects that I've developed in the past.

From cell phones, we deem as being essential to life, cable TV and yes the exorbitant cost of designer coffee when a regular coffee at a diner serves the same purpose at 1/3 the cost.
