Enter a property's price and the monthly rent to see its gross and net rental yield. A quick way to sanity-check any buy-to-let or overseas property before you dig deeper.
Illustrative only. Actual returns depend on the development, occupancy, costs, financing and market conditions. Property investment carries risk; capital is at risk and returns are not guaranteed.
Gross yield is the annual rent divided by the property price: (monthly rent × 12) ÷ price × 100. It's the headline figure, but it ignores costs. Net yield subtracts running costs — management, service charges, maintenance and void periods — so it's closer to what you actually keep.
For overseas markets like Phuket, be wary of high headline yields that quietly exclude costs. Management of a hotel-let property, for example, typically takes a meaningful share of rental income, and there are service charges to factor in. A realistic net figure is the one that matters.
