The 2% rule is good in alabama but really a buyer should develop a detailed proforma to see what his numbers are.

My latest rental I bought for 15k and I am putting 15k in repairs in it.

I'll get $700 per month minimum.

Keep in mind folks...a lot of my renters have poor credit and can not get approved for a mortgage so they rent.

I didn't even know they made houses/apartments that cheap anymore!

Anyone making 2% must be absolutely rolling in the dough. I don't know anything about real estate, but doesn't that equate to a 24% annual return on investment? Holy shite.

That's nice but it's an anomaly. I can't imagine a 200k house renting for 3-4k a month.
