Rental Yield Calculator

Rental yield tells you how much return a property generates relative to its value. Gross yield uses rent only, while net yield factors in expenses like rates, insurance, and management fees. A higher yield means better cash flow — but it's just one piece of the property puzzle. General information only, not tax advice.

Common questions

What is the difference between gross and net rental yield?

Gross yield compares annual rent with property value. Net yield also deducts ownership costs such as rates, insurance, management fees and vacancy.

Is a higher rental yield always better?

No. Yield is only one part of the investment picture. Location, vacancy risk, maintenance, borrowing costs and capital growth also matter.
