Operating costs such as tax, insurance, maintenance, and vacancy. Exclude loan principal and interest.
How to use this tool
Enter USD property value, annual rent and annual operating expenses. Convert monthly rent to an annual basis and organise vacancy or cost assumptions so they are not counted twice.
Results and examples
Gross yield is rent divided by value; net yield uses rent minus operating costs. NOI is that difference, not a final investment return including debt payments or resale gains.
Worked example
USD 450,000 value, USD 24,000 rent and USD 6,000 costs gives 4% net yield and USD 18,000 NOI.
Limitations
- Financing, transaction taxes, acquisition costs and capital gains are excluded.
- Missing costs and vacancy assumptions can materially change actual returns.
