Property Valuation

In Montana, when an appraiser finds that a property's actual rent is below market rent, this may be called a:

ABonus value from below-market financing
BRental value loss or 'below-market rent' adjustment, which may reduce the property's investment value compared to comparable fully-at-market properties✓ Correct
CFree rent period that benefits the tenant
DCompliance with rent stabilization ordinances

Explanation

When a property's actual rent is below market (due to long-term leases, favored tenants, or management decisions), the income approach may show a lower value than comparable properties at market rent. The difference between market and actual value is sometimes called 'leased fee vs. fee simple' value difference.
