How it is calculated

  1. Gross yield = rent for one year ÷ purchase price.
  2. Net yield = (rent − costs) ÷ (price + buying costs).
  3. Gain before tax = rent − costs − loan payments + (sale − selling costs − loan left) − own cash.
  4. Tax: your rate × (rent − costs − interest) and your rate × capital gain.

Example

Buy at 100,000 with no loan, rent 500 a month, costs 1,000 a year, sell at 120,000 after 5 years: 25,000 net rent + 20,000 gain = 45,000 before tax. With 30% tax on rent and 20% on the gain: 33,500 after tax.

Good to know

  • Rent, costs and prices stay the same every year.
  • Tax is a simple rate: real tax rules depend on the country and your situation.
  • This is not investment advice.
