The boss says his rent decreased by $8,000/month since she started.

The factors which have caused the increase in residential market areas are:1.Increase in home prices and decrease in foreclosures: Due to easy financing options it has seen that there is an increase in demand of real estate property, due to this there is an increase in home price and decrease in foreclosures.2.Increase in price points: With a rising focus on higher price points, 63% more investors considered $200k+ properties than last year.

@Mark Ferguson How much of the permit decrease do you think should be attributed to the price of oil for Greeley?

They are not making more land in Manitou Springs so I don't seeing the value decreasing.

As his prices increased, and the market tightened up, our margins decreased significantly.

What is the overall % your market has seen as far as increase or decrease over 2014? 

Deductions are not a dollar for dollar decrease in your tax liability, tax credits are.

The good thing is if you have ownership or management experience you can be credited and this will decrease you rent.Hope this cleared up some confusion.

Needing a $100k may be 5 days of cash-flow for someone like Grant, but that's a high enough number to scare most of us from ever getting started, me included.Sacrifice and exercise your saving muscle to prevent schemes and scams, shortcuts and bad partnerships.  

The rent you charge does not go down even if the home value decreases.
