The 2% rule in real estate in Las Vegas is that, when looking for a property that you plan on renting, the rent you should reasonably expect to be able to charge should be 2% of the total cost of purchasing the piece of Las Vegas real estate. The reason this rule of thumb exists in the Las Vegas real estate community is because it helps you calculate the minimum rent you’ll need to charge to get a reasonable return, especially when you’re paying interest on a mortgage and considering taxes and maintenance costs. However, 2% isn’t necessarily a concrete number; there are people who argue that 1% is more reasonable and more realistic, but shooting higher doesn’t hurt unless you fail to fill a vacancy long term as a result of high rent.
When a piece of Las Vegas real estate has entered a state of “pending,” it means that the seller has accepted the offer and the property is now going to the closing process.

Interested parties can still make an offer on a Las Vegas property that’s pending, but most deals in this stage go through.
“Redlining is the practice of denying a creditworthy applicant a loan for housing in a certain neighborhood even though the applicant may otherwise be eligible for the loan. The term refers to the presumed practice of mortgage lenders of drawing red lines around portions of a map to indicate areas or neighborhoods in which they do not want to make loans. Redlining on a racial basis has been held by the courts to be an illegal practice. It is unlawful under the FHAct only when done on a prohibited basis. Redlining an area on the basis of such considerations as the fact that the area lies on a fault line or a flood plain is not prohibited.” - Fair Housing Act
