How it works
Gross yield = annual rent ÷ property price × 100.
Net yield subtracts annual expenses (rates, insurance, management, repairs, strata) from annual rent before dividing.
Frequently asked questions
- What's a 'good' rental yield in Australia?
- Typically 3–5% gross for capital cities and higher for regional areas. Yield is only one factor — consider capital growth too.
- Should I include the mortgage?
- No — gross/net yield is calculated before financing. Cash-on-cash return includes loan repayments.
