If you buy a duplex for let's say 60k and after fix up it's worth 100k do you charge 1% of its value so 1k a month?

Rent is dictated by your local market, not the value of the property.  Rentometer.com is a good resource to get a general idea of what a property will rent for.

Gotcha, bc when I googled it said most landlords do 1% of the value

@Tyler Winchell For a quick reference you can use rentometer.com. I would suggest developing a relationship with a local real estate agent or property manager as they can easily pull rent comps for you from the local MLS.
