Free tool for England
Rental yield calculator
Type what the home cost, or is worth, and the monthly rent. Add your yearly costs for the net figure.
In short: Gross yield is a year of rent divided by the price of the home, as a percentage. Net yield takes the yearly costs and the empty weeks off the rent first. Neither counts the mortgage or tax.
Nothing you type here is sent or kept.
Type the price and the monthly rent to see the yield.
How it is worked out
- Gross yield: the monthly rent times 12, divided by the price, times 100.
- Net yield: the rent actually received in the year, less the yearly costs, divided by the price, times 100.
- Yearly costs are things like insurance, repairs, safety checks, a service charge, ground rent and any agent fee.
- The mortgage and tax are left out, because they depend on the owner and not on the home.
- This is arithmetic, not advice about whether to buy or sell.

Questions people ask
How is rental yield worked out?
Multiply the monthly rent by 12, divide by the price of the home and multiply by 100. £1,000 a month on a £200,000 home is a gross yield of 6%.
What is the difference between gross and net yield?
Gross yield uses the full rent. Net yield first takes off the yearly costs and any weeks the home stood empty.
Does yield include the mortgage?
No. Yield measures the home, not how it was paid for. Take the mortgage interest off separately to see what is left for you.
