With the high probability of govt debt reduction are you reducing your number of Section 8 tenants to hedge against the possible outcome that the Section 8 program may see a reduction in funding?

They fail to take into account opportunity cost of the money they used for the down payment, principal reduction, appreciation, capital improvements, etc.

Vets can, of course, go through the process of disputing these reductions but many feel this is a hopeless venture.Gail

Someone else might define it differently - 1 year of lost income; 50 % reduction in rents; etc. 

This will cause panic to be heightened. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/hell-coming-mathematical-proof-185019616.htmlSo I freaked out on Friday and asked for a massive price reduction or I will walk away.

The listing agent and attorney representing the estate are playing hardball and won't let us out or give a price reduction.

I want to do right by everyone involved but getting sued into buying a house is a unmanageable pill to swallow. 

No money is changing hands, only a reduction in purchase price.

Location specific of course, but in expensive rental markets, I can't see any reduction in rents in A class SFRs covering that spread.When it comes to the MF space - depends on the town and availability of A/B property for tenants to scale up to, and to be honest, I can't see many of my C MF tenants being comfortable moving into nicer neighborhoods.

As soon as you pop that can of worms, be prepared to go fishing for existing issues with the property that may need to be brought up to current IBC, Residential may maen proper handrails and accessibility egresses, whereas Commercial may be a bigger pill to swallow going so far as sprinkler and fire suppression systems.
