PERREN'S PEEK OF THE PROPERTY WEEK
Use net yield instead of gross yield
The simplest way to calculate rental yield is to divide a
property’s price by yearly rent- giving you an amount that’s known as “gross
yield” But this is the wrong indicator to use.
Gross yield does not take into account any of the costs
associated with owning a property- such as the mortgage, the on going
spending on maintenance, insurance, service charges, letting agent fees, etc.
Once these costs have been factored in, you end up with “net
yield” Calculating the net yield is a far more practical- not to mention
realistic way of determining how much your property is making you.

Something for the weekend...
£239,950 at £900pcm = 4.5% gross yield (remember to work out your net yield!)
