What's the best way to calculate gross rental yield on a potential UK buy-to-let property, considering advertised rent versus actual received rent, and where can I find a reliable online calculator for this?
Quick Answer
Gross rental yield is calculated as (Annual Rent / Property Purchase Price) x 100. It's a quick initial assessment, but does not factor in voids, operating costs, or taxes.
