It’s most important that this feels fresh, new and is easy to read. It may include graphic or abstract picture that represents real estate investments or shows through real estate anyone can get the same tax breaks that the rich do.

Lettering should be really clear, easy to read, and will stand out on the shelf (virtually). We don’t want old-fashioned, Times Roman or italized font. We want it to feel modern.

If a picture/graphic is included it should really add to the message and not be something that should be taken literally.

While we don't want to be derivative, looking around the web here are some examples that we liked and our reasons:

We like: http://www.amazon.com/Buy-It-Rent-P…589848/ref
It is clean, design is simple and it’s easy to read the text. We don’t like the colors.

Looks like others liked it too: Here’s a derivative of that first one on the market: http://www.amazon.com/Only-Real-Est…M4X2ZY/ref

Design is simple and the way they worked into “to” is clever.

I like how clean and easy to read it is, but I don’t like the big literal graphic at the bottom.
