+Decorator preceding property not supported [prop-decorator]
+-----------------------------------------------------------
+
+Mypy does not yet support analysis of decorators that precede the property
+decorator. If the decorator does not preserve the declared type of the property,
+mypy will not infer the correct type for the declaration. If the decorator cannot
+be moved after the ``@property`` decorator, then you must use a type ignore
