OK Here's where it gets complicated...

*Specials
-lease by wednesday (6/13) get a free parkign spot
-lease this appartment and get a 500 rent credit applied to one months rent

Let's do the math...
+1097
- 45 (minus one parking spot)
- 41 (=500 off/12 months [I am spreading out the 500 rebate over all 12 months to get a monthly savings]
