Gross rental yields for Thai residential property sit between 3.9% and 8% across the main buyer areas, with Phuket at the top of the range. Gross yield is before management, common fees, running costs and tax; net is typically well below it.

## Notes

- Gross yield is a year's rent as a share of the purchase price, before any cost. A developer's projected or guaranteed yield is the developer's offer, not a market figure.
- Lets of under 30 days need a hotel licence; most condominiums can only be let monthly or longer.

## Questions

### What is a good rental yield in Phuket?

Judge a yield net of costs, not gross. Work from a realistic nightly rate and occupancy down to net in the rental yield calculator, and treat any brochure figure as the developer's projection.
