Work out your own yield

The figures here are averages for the whole of Derbyshire Dales; your own property will differ. Enter your own price and rent — nothing is pre-filled. The same arithmetic as the full rental yield calculator.

The property

Purchase price, and the rent you charge or expect to charge.

Annual running costs

All optional, all yearly. Leave a line blank and it counts as nothing — only the lines you fill in are included.

Leave this blank for the standard net yield, which is measured on the property and ignores how it was financed. Fill it in and the second figure stops being a net yield in the usual sense: it becomes a leveraged, cash-flow view of your own borrowing, and it is not comparable with a net yield quoted anywhere else. The page relabels the result to say which of the two it has given you.

What this figure is, and isn’t

It is a gross yield: rent over price, before any costs. It models no voids, management, maintenance, tax or finance, and forecasts nothing.

The average rented home and the average sold home are not the same property. The index divides an area’s average rent by its average sale price, so it shows how Derbyshire Dales compares with other areas — not the return on any particular property.

The yield runs about two months behind rents, because Land Registry prices are published later than ONS rents. How the index is built →
