Yes, it was quietly stripped out of the bill along with provision that would have eliminated the 1031 exchange of artwork.

There is art work throughout the house.  

repainted and upgraded some furniture and artwork What was the outcome?

SMART tv in the living rooms, basic cable in the bedrooms, gas or charcoal grill, indoor and outdoor manly type of entertainment (poker table, darts, fire pit, horse shoes), and lots and lots of artwork that I can not post a picture of on here without the post being removed.

I wish I had not rented to the single mom with the three year old who created a bit of pencil artwork on the kitchen floor during the showing.

We use primer if the walls are in decent shape and Kilz if the walls are stained/artwork/ or generally gross.Jim

There's probably 2-4 pieces of artwork on every wall in a house.My artwork theme? 

However if there is a QR code next to each painting or artwork for the story or data, and I have to take out my phone once for every piece of art I would go crazy.

From Fannie:Borrowed Funds Secured by an AssetBorrowed funds secured by an asset are an acceptable source of funds for the down payment, closing costs, and reserves, since borrowed funds secured by an asset represent a return of equity.Assets that may be used to secure funds include automobiles, artwork, collectibles, real estate [EDIT: eg, a HELOC], or financial assets, such as savings accounts, certificates of deposit, stocks, bonds, and 401(k) accounts.Secured Loans as DebtWhen qualifying the borrower, the lender must consider monthly payments for secured loans as a debt.If a secured loan does not require monthly payments, the lender must calculate an equivalent amount and consider that amount as a recurring debt.When loans are secured by the borrower’s financial assets, monthly payments for the loan do not have to be considered as long-term debt [EDIT: in other words, 401k loans are not only acceptable, but we don't even hit your DTI with the payment].I like to push things; I've been waiting for an opportunity to use artwork-secured debt for ages but it's never come up.

A little off topic but I need to get some artwork in my office and I was thinking about putting up motivational/success quotes.
