What this rental yield calculator answers
Compare rent with purchase price, then include vacancy and recurring property costs. Net yield excludes finance costs; the separate pre-tax cash-flow estimate deducts loan interest but not principal repayments.

- How do vacancy and annual expenses change net yield?
- What cash flow remains after the loan interest entered?
