Calculadora de Rendimiento de Alquiler (Bruto y Neto)Fórmula

Gross vs. Net Rental Yield

Rental yield measures the income return on a property investment, expressed as a percentage of the property value. There are two important variations.

Gross Rental Yield

Gross Yield = (Annual Rental Income / Property Value) x 100

This is the simplest measure, using total rent before any deductions. Useful for quick comparisons but overstates actual returns.

Net Rental Yield

Net Yield = (Annual Rent - Expenses - Vacancy) / Property Value x 100

This accounts for operating expenses and vacancy, giving a more realistic picture of investment performance.

Interpreting Yield

  • Gross yield of 6-8% is generally considered good for residential property
  • Net yield is typically 2-4% lower than gross yield
  • Compare net yield to alternative investments (bonds, stocks) for a fair comparison
  • Higher yield often means higher risk or lower appreciation potential
  • Ejemplo Resuelto

    A $350,000 property renting for $2,400/month with $8,500 in annual expenses and $1,440 in vacancy loss.

    1. Annual gross rent: $2,400 x 12 = $28,800
    2. Effective income: $28,800 - $1,440 = $27,360
    3. Net income: $27,360 - $8,500 = $18,860
    4. Gross yield: $28,800 / $350,000 = 8.23%
    5. Net yield: $18,860 / $350,000 = 5.39%
    6. Expense ratio: ($8,500 + $1,440) / $28,800 = 34.5%
