How this is measured
Gross yield = 12 × average monthly rent ÷ average sale price, per building, from live listings on hipflat, DotProperty, DDProperty and FazWaz. A building counts only with at least 2 sale and 2 rent listings, a sale price of ฿500,000 or more and a yield no higher than 25% — anything else is a parsing error, not a bargain. It is a pre-tax, pre-vacancy figure: net yield after CAM fees, vacancy and tax usually lands 1.5–3 points lower. Refreshed weekly.
