Rental yield measures the financial performance of a property investment. Gross yield is calculated by dividing annual rent by the total purchase price, including fees and notary costs.
Net yield accounts for non-recoverable charges, property tax, landlord insurance, and vacancy rates. A property with 7% gross yield can drop to 4-5% net.
Monthly cashflow is the difference between rent received and all expenses (mortgage payment, charges, property tax). Positive cashflow means the property pays for itself.
Gross yield is simply: . Net yield deducts all annual charges: property tax, landlord insurance, management fees, vacancy rate, and non-recoverable co-ownership charges. A property at 7% gross often drops to 4-5% net.
The average gross yield in France is around 5 to 6%, but it varies greatly by location. Paris averages 3-4% gross, major cities (Lyon, Bordeaux) 4-5%, while mid-sized and small cities can reach 7-10% gross.
Three main levers: negotiate the purchase price below market value, optimize the rent (furnishing, co-living, short-term rentals), and choose the most advantageous tax regime (LMNP réel often reduces tax to zero through depreciation). Extending the loan duration also improves monthly cash flow.
