Shon Butani Areas near Manhattan where the 2% rule can actually work?

So when you walk in you can actually feel your money being blown out of your pockets. :)Property management companies might charge more if there is more maintenance, and you might need a super if the tenants are not used to cleaning up after themselvesIf you total all these up the 2% rule-of-thumb may not be the returns you're looking for, especially when you factor in the tenant headache you are dealing with.Last point: often if you buy a property for $30K you will likely be selling it for $30K in 10 years, so don't expect to necessarily get rich off the appreciation.With all that said don't let this stop you looking for property, because you MUST start somewhere - we all did.
