Gross yield, and the net yield nobody quotes

Rental Yield & ROI Calculator

Most yields advertised in Pakistan are gross — before voids, maintenance, tax and management. This shows both, so you can see the gap.

The rent actually achievable, not the rent being asked. They differ.

%

Maintenance, property tax, society dues, management, insurance. Started at 12% of gross rent, which is realistic here — adjust it.

Net yield

Gross yield

Before voids and costs — the figure usually advertised.

Net monthly income

Rent collected a year

Payback on rent alone

Ignoring any capital appreciation.

Why gross and net differ so much here

Pakistani residential gross yields typically sit between 3% and 5%. By the time you take out a month or two of vacancy, society dues, maintenance, property tax and management, the net figure is often a third lower.

That is not an argument against buying — it is an argument for being honest about where the return comes from. For most residential purchases here the case rests on capital appreciation, and rent covers the holding cost. Model the appreciation separately with the total-return calculator, and compare the result against what a term deposit pays before deciding.
