What is rental yield?

Rental yield measures the annual rental income a property produces as a percentage of its value. Gross yield looks at rent only. Net yield subtracts the typical costs of holding the property.

How this is calculated

What it computes: This tool estimates gross rental yield and net rental yield based on the purchase price or current value you enter, the weekly rent and your estimated annual holding expenses.

Formula: Gross yield = (weekly rent × 52) ÷ property value × 100. Net yield = (annual rent − annual expenses) ÷ property value × 100.

Sources: The calculation uses standard property-investment arithmetic. No benchmark coefficients or market predictions are applied. Sunshine Coast rent ranges and vacancy data should be verified with a local rental appraisal before making investment decisions. Queensland tenancy information is available from the Residential Tenancies Authority.

Assumptions and limitations: The model assumes 52 weeks of rent per year and does not allow for vacancy, arrears, capital growth, depreciation, loan interest or tax. Expenses are entered by you and should include rates, insurance, property management fees, maintenance, strata levies and any other regular costs. The result is an estimate only and not financial advice.
