Do we still shoot for the 2% rule in today's markets?

In today's markets, do you find yourself still shooting for the 2% rule? Do you focus on a 5, 7, or even a 10% cap after all expenses? Do you focus on $200 a door? 

As investors, what deals/numbers are striking you to eagerly pursue a deal? 

What numbers turn you away from a property?

I understand all markets are different, but I would like to see what today's investors shoot for! Please provide your goal-driven number as well as the market those numbers apply to!

2% is non-existent in my market.

It’s hard enough to find a 1% deal.
