Property ROI Calculator →Rental yield is the annual return you earn on an investment property expressed as a percentage of the property's purchase price. There are two types: gross yield (before costs) and net yield (after all holding costs).
Gross Yield = (Annual Rental Income ÷ Purchase Price) × 100
Net Yield = (Annual Net Income ÷ Purchase Price) × 100
As a benchmark: below 6% gross is considered weak, 6–8% is acceptable, and above 8% gross is strong for South African residential property. Net yield of 4–6% after all costs is typical for well-located residential buy-to-let investments.
