Thanks again for the feedback.  For super realistic renderings I do outsource to folks using vray and other programs. I am very open to ideas and direction though!

That's a good question.  I love auto cad so I don't think Ill switch completely.

Its the rendering that drives me.  Also some of the building components.

I might take your advice and start with HD Pro. I don't have a lot of time for learning curves.  Will what I learn with HD Pro translate?

Thanks for the great responses. I wasn't even looking at the Home Designer products.  Are they more for the DIY v professional.  Right now I do everything in CAD and have a rendering person.  I want the ability to do it myself.

I can see the benefit of getting a loan or just paying outright but that$550+ a year adds up. 

One way or the other you have to pay!

That's what I was thinking.  Thanks for the added push!

Thanks.  I am deciding between Interiors and Premium. Rent to own makes it easier.

I am an ID doing a lot of remodels, designing, interiors. There are a few features in Architect that are not in Designer.  Any thoughts?
