Gross Rental Yield
Annual rent divided by property value. Quick comparison metric that doesn't account for expenses.
Net Rental Yield
Accounts for all expenses including maintenance, taxes, and vacancy. Shows true profitability.

Rental Yield Formulas
Example: A $250,000 property renting for $2,000/month:
($24,000 ÷ $250,000) × 100 = 9.6% gross yield
Example: Same property with $6,000/year expenses:
(($24,000 - $6,000) ÷ $250,000) × 100 = 7.2% net yield
