1% RULE

The one percent rule refers to the rent to cost ratio a single family rental investment property must have in order to be profitable as a rule of thumb. While there are a number of expenses to keep in mind, the monthly rent on an investment property must be at least 1% of the total purchase cost to have a positive ROI and be considered a favorable investment asset. In more distressed times we have also experienced common use of the “2% rule.”
