What is the Rental Yield Calculator?
Rental yield is the annual return a property generates relative to its value. Gross yield ignores costs; net yield subtracts operating expenses. Most Australian investors target gross yields of 4–6%, though inner-city apartments typically yield 3–4.5% and regional properties can yield 6%+.

Gross Yield = (Weekly Rent × 52) ÷ Property Value × 100. Net Yield = (Annual Rent − Annual Costs) ÷ Property Value × 100.- R

Frequently asked questions
What is a good rental yield in Australia?
A gross rental yield of 4–6% is considered acceptable in Australia. Capital cities typically offer 3–5%; regional areas can offer 6–8%.
How does rental yield affect negative gearing?
When rental income is less than the total holding costs (interest + expenses), the property is negatively geared — the loss can be deducted against your income tax.
