1% rule in Austin TX
Hello all, first post for me.
Does anyone know how to apply this rule to the Austin market? I've been looking for months and can't find anything that even touches 1% on austin. Or any other major market for that matter.
For example- my home is worth 350, and rent in my area is 1800-2100. Even at my original purchase price of 250K (4 years ago) I wouldn't meet that.
