    Why Most Yield Calculations Are Wrong

    Most rental yield calculators ask for two numbers: property price and monthly rent. That gives you gross yield — a number that overstates your actual return by 30-45%.

    The National Apartment Association reports that operating expenses consume 35-45% of gross rent on US rental properties. Skipping those expenses in your calculation means making investment decisions on inflated numbers.

    Common calculation mistakes:

    • Skipping CapEx reserves — a roof replacement at $12,000 wipes out 1.5 years of income
    • Using national tax averages — property tax varies from 0.3% (Hawaii) to 2.2% (New Jersey)
    • Ignoring insurance costs — Florida premiums run 3x Ohio premiums per the NAIC
    • Forgetting vacancy — the US Census Bureau reports 6.6% national vacancy, meaning 3-4 weeks of lost rent per year

    How PIE's Rental Yield Calculator Works

    PIE computes four yield metrics simultaneously using property-specific data:

    Gross Yield Annual rent ÷ property price. Quick comparison metric between properties and markets.
    Net Yield Subtracts property tax, insurance, management, maintenance, vacancy, and CapEx. The true income return.
    Cap Rate Net Operating Income ÷ property value. Professional valuation standard per the Appraisal Institute.
    Cash-on-Cash Return Annual cash flow ÷ cash invested. Your actual return after mortgage payments.

    PIE automatically loads state-specific property tax rates, local insurance estimates, and market-appropriate vacancy data for any US address. No manual research required.

    Sample output for a $145,000 property in Cleveland, OH:

    MetricValuevs National Median
    Gross Yield11.2%+78%
    Net Yield7.2%+89%
    Cap Rate7.8%+85%
    Cash-on-Cash (25% down)9.4%+75%
