From year 2 onward, the ROI further decreases, seeing as the yearly nominal gain is still €9000, whereas the net equity increases.I apologize if this was a bit extensive, I was partly writing this to recap some thoughts for myself :) If anyone has come across similar markets and/or knows of ways to handle this, any input is highly appreciated!

If it is an A class rent area, you can look at decreasing.

Say I buy a value add 6-plex, restore it to a prime income producing property by increasing rents or decreasing costs etc.., and then I want to sell it and realize the difference in value.

I am investigating if it would be advantageous for us to reduce our tax liability (decrease profits).

This means your spread on a scrape and new construction keeps decreasing.

What are the best ways to research how values may increase or decrease in specific areas?

If you buy a property for $45k and your rent is only $250/mo. .......your wealth will decrease over 5 years.

The real estate crash of 2008 really started in 2006 with increasing inventory that lead to decreasing prices.

There's not much I could do to decrease the expenses other than homesteading the property and decreasing property tax by about $1500/year (new payment would be $1050).There's what I know that I could do to increase profitability 1. 

If you're struggling, you can decrease your expenses or increase your income.
