If you can spare the time I've also found that watching/listening to the webinars that the sites usually produce on each deal is worthwhile in order to get a flavor for the sponsor in person (so to speak) and see how he/she fields questions from potential investors. 

@Patrick FraireMy best friend’s sister’s boyfriend’s brother’s girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who’s going with a girl who saw Ferris pass-out at 31 Flavors last night.

Not only during the holiday season, but also at other times of the year as the spirit moves us.This past summer, during the hottest week of the year, we handed out a cold six pack of flavored sparking water to each tenant household.

I have the data that shows the difference in rental rates and the increases you can achieve by making subtle changes to the service you provide to residents. 

In Chicago, I have to imagine there are multiple options, all with a different flavor and focus.

I want to be clear I get any subtle point you are making.

The deal structure has some subtle, or maybe not-so-subtle, differences compared to just about every apartment deal I've seen.

I do some flavor of this currently.

Hopefully it'll be a subtle reminder that the property is sitting and not making them any money.  

Make it subtle.
