Age

Enter an effective age here (and a typical life in the following field) ONLY if you want to depreciate the majority of the components for the garage or basement differently than the overall depreciation percentage set on the Depreciation screen.

If you leave this field blank, Residential Estimator automatically sets the depreciation percentage for the components for the garage or basement to the overall depreciation percentage set on the Depreciation screen.

You can set the age and life, or the depreciation percentage, for individual components to override the value you set here.
