Gross yield only — it does not account for costs such as mortgage interest, void periods, management fees, maintenance or tax.
How this works
Gross rental yield = annual rent ÷ property value × 100. It's a quick way to compare properties, but it ignores running costs — for a fuller picture, deduct mortgage interest, management fees, maintenance, insurance and void periods to reach a net yield.
