With this in mind they can leave the money in a bank account but with inflation they are losing 2-3% doing nothing, invest in the stock market but your volatility is riskier even with blue chip stocks going up and down a few percents a day and you can have something like the 08 recession where half your wealth is gone, and finally you have real estate where you can park your money and concentrate on cash flow.

What if it's not a huge correction and things just stall for 2 years and interest rates rise?

We thought we would ask for an increase, due to inflation and asked for $200. 

I am talking about fees where are over inflated and could be reduced.

How much cost inflation from 2013 to 2016?

Currently the market is moving well and property values are on the rise.

There are bad companies out there that have inflated pro forma, the rehabs are not completed to the standards that they claim, and they use CAP rates as a selling tool on a SFR where the cap rate is irrelevant.
