Rental Yield Calculator

Estimate the Performance of Your Investment Property

Understanding how your investment property is performing is an important part of making informed property decisions. Our Rental Yield Calculator provides a quick and easy way to estimate the gross rental yield of your property, helping you evaluate how your rental income compares with your property’s current value.

Whether you’re an experienced property investor, purchasing your first rental property, or reviewing an existing investment, this calculator offers a useful snapshot of your property’s income potential.

What Is Rental Yield?

Rental yield is a commonly used measure that compares the annual rental income generated by a property with its estimated market value or purchase price. It provides a simple percentage that can help investors assess the performance of an investment property and compare different opportunities.

While rental yield is only one factor to consider, it can provide valuable insight when reviewing your investment strategy or deciding whether it’s time to seek an updated rental appraisal.

Use the Rental Yield Calculator

Simply enter your property’s details into the calculator below to generate an estimated gross rental yield.

Please note that this calculation is intended as a general guide and does not include ownership expenses such as:

• Property management fees
• Council rates
• Insurance
• Mortgage repayments
• Property maintenance and repairs
• Body corporate fees (where applicable)
• Other investment-related costs

For a complete understanding of your property’s financial performance, these expenses should also be considered alongside your rental income.

Why Review Your Rental Yield?

Regularly reviewing your rental property’s performance can help you:

• Measure the income generated by your investment property
• Compare rental returns with similar rental properties
• Identify opportunities to improve rental performance
• Make informed investment decisions
• Determine whether your current rent reflects local market conditions

Keeping track of your rental yield is one of the many ways landlords can better manage and grow their property portfolio over time.
