What is the difference between gross yield and net yield?

Gross rental yield is calculated using the full annual rent before any deductions, divided by property value. Net rental yield deducts all operating expenses (property taxes, insurance, management fees, maintenance, vacancy allowance, CapEx reserves) from the annual income before dividing by value. The difference between gross and net yield typically ranges from 2 to 4 percentage points depending on the property type and expense structure. Always use net yield for serious investment analysis; gross yield is only useful for quick initial screening when you don't yet have expense details.

What is a good rental yield in the US?

In the US market, net rental yields (equivalent to cap rates) typically range from 3–4% in gateway coastal markets (NYC, SF, LA, Boston) to 6–9% in Midwest and secondary Sunbelt markets. A commonly cited rule of thumb is the 'one percent rule' — that monthly rent should be at least 1% of the purchase price ($1,500/month on a $150,000 property), which translates to a 12% gross annual yield. However, in most major markets today, achieving 1% is difficult. A more realistic target in modern high-price markets is 0.6–0.8% monthly, and investors make up the difference with appreciation and tax benefits.

Should I use purchase price or current market value as the denominator?

Both are valid and serve different purposes. Yield-on-cost (using original purchase price) measures the income return on your original investment and is stable over time. Yield-on-current-value (using today's market value) measures the current income efficiency of your capital if you were to sell and redeploy elsewhere. If your property has appreciated significantly since purchase, your yield-on-current-value will be lower than your yield-on-cost. Both metrics are useful: yield-on-cost tracks your personal return history; yield-on-current-value reveals whether your equity is still optimally deployed or whether a sale and reinvestment might improve income returns.

How does leverage affect rental yield?

Financing with a mortgage transforms the metric from yield-on-property-value to yield-on-equity. If a property generates 6% net yield (NOI/value) and you finance 75% of the purchase with a 7% mortgage, you are borrowing at a higher rate than the property earns, creating negative leverage that reduces your cash-on-equity yield below 6%. Conversely, if mortgage rates are 4% and your property yields 7%, positive leverage amplifies your equity yield above 7%. This relationship between cap rate (or net yield) and mortgage rate is the fundamental determinant of whether leverage helps or hurts real estate returns.

How do I calculate rental yield on a mortgaged property?

For a levered rental yield (equivalent to cash-on-cash return), use: Levered Yield = (NOI − Annual Debt Service) ÷ Total Equity Invested × 100. Total equity invested includes down payment, closing costs, and initial repairs. This metric captures the actual cash yield on the money you personally committed, accounting for the cost of borrowing. If NOI is $24,000, annual debt service is $18,000, and you invested $80,000 in equity, your levered yield is ($24,000 − $18,000) ÷ $80,000 = 7.5%.

Does vacancy affect my rental yield calculation?

Yes — vacancy is one of the most important adjustments in a realistic yield calculation. If you assume 100% occupancy in your gross yield calculation, you are setting an unachievable benchmark. Most residential rentals experience 5–10% effective vacancy annually through tenant turnover, lease-up periods, and occasional extended vacancies. Commercial properties often run higher (10–20%) and are more sensitive to single tenant departures. Always apply a realistic vacancy rate to convert Potential Gross Income into Effective Gross Income before computing net yield.

How does rental yield compare to stock dividend yield?

Rental yield and stock dividend yield are conceptually similar — both measure annual income as a percentage of asset value. However, rental yield involves illiquidity, active management, leverage potential, and physical risk (fire, flood, vacancy) that equity dividends do not. As a result, investors typically require a premium over dividend yields to justify real estate investment. With S&P 500 dividend yields around 1.3–1.5% historically, investors expect net rental yields of at least 4–6% to compensate for the additional burden. The illiquidity premium is real: you cannot sell a rental property in seconds the way you can sell a stock.
