Questions

What is a good rental yield?
It depends on the market and your goal, but 5–8% net is a common income sweet spot. Below 3% usually signals a capital-growth play; above 8% often carries more risk or work.
What's the difference between gross and net yield?
Gross yield divides annual rent by price and ignores costs. Net yield subtracts running costs first — management, insurance, maintenance, taxes, and voids — so it reflects what you actually keep.
Which costs should I include?
Everything it takes to run the let: management or letting fees, insurance, repairs and maintenance, service charges, property taxes, and an allowance for void periods between tenants.
