Frequently Asked Questions

What is the 2% rule for property?

The 2% rule is a rental property guideline suggesting monthly rent should equal at least 2% of the property’s purchase price. It is most often used by direct landlords evaluating cash-flow rentals. The CEO Fund’s mortgage note strategy is different: investors focus on real estate-backed debt, fund underwriting, collateral quality, diversification, and managed cash-flow potential rather than buying and operating rental properties.
