As an example, the property tax structures between California and Colorado are very different, and so would influence the operating expense numbers for the same exact apartments in those different respective markets.

Everything I have seen about demographic preferences indicate people want to be close to a neighborhood center, I don't see the zoning or population in the mall area coming around to attract a quality tenant base that allow differentiation between new construction over the older stock in the area.Heading south you have stronger influence from Joint Base Lewis McChord and a lot of upgrades going on in local neighborhoods including University Place and Lakewood.

Those clients become a center of influence for your introiductions, by mail or cold calling.....was very useful building any business.

implementation of the influence system?
