3 Easy Steps: How to calculate a Property’s Return on Investment and Rental Yield?

Last updated on August 19th, 2022

Before diving into the investment industry, it’s important to have an idea of your potential revenue and profit to avoid financial losses. This is why your overall rate of return should also be considered! Often referred to as Cash-on-Cash Return, this metric helps investors to measure the amount of their investment properties’ annual return. This is also used to foresee whether your projected earnings and expenses are on the right track or not!

Primarily, targeting properties with high rental yields is important as they commonly generate a steady cash flow. Setting aside the costs and expenses, you can compute the total amount of money that you’ll earn through Net Rental Yield. This refers to the annual profit generated by a property divided by its price. 

While investors can manually calculate profit on their short-term rental properties, the major disadvantage is inaccuracy! 

This is where STR analytics tools step in and perform excellent work.
