Def a red flag for next time (and the fake butter wouldn't melt attitude she had) when one small dog, became two indoor cats and then 6 turtles.

The homes for that area are right in line with the normal homes in the Colorado area (still expensive) and then there is Van Aire (http://www.vanaireskyport.org/) which fought to stay open when DIA was built 25 years ago. 

I have an old building no central air but I do provide window AC units, I usually install them for them and take them for the winter time.

I am in the Air Force and I am stationed in Tucson, AZ.

There are other comps that sold for 530k but have an extra bathroom, garage, and central air. 

I am active duty in the United States Air Force.

This is a bit off topic but since I live in Kona I figured I could help clear the air (I couldn't resist) on the recent eruption's effects so far on Kona.

I am interested in acquiring a few properties in Colorado Springs to use as Air BNB properties.

I ran the calculation with a ductless minisplit air source heat pump vs an energy star oil furnace/boiler(with oil at $2.21/gallon and electric at 15 cents/kilowatt hour,) and with these assumptions, the ductless saves about 35% on heating costs.
