## Scenario inputs

```json
{
  "inputs": {
    "purchasePrice": 6000000,
    "monthlyRent": 28000,
    "propertyTaxAnnual": 10000,
    "maintenanceAnnual": 15000,
    "insuranceAnnual": 4000,
    "vacancyRatePercent": 25
  }
}
```

## How this is calculated

Computes gross rental yield (annual rent as a percentage of purchase price, before expenses) and net rental yield (after property tax, maintenance, insurance, and expected vacancy), letting a buyer compare rental income against a property price rather than just eyeballing rent numbers.

**Formula:** `annualRentalIncome = monthlyRent x 12 x (1 - vacancyRate/100); grossYield = (annualRentalIncome / purchasePrice) x 100; netOperatingIncome = annualRentalIncome - (propertyTax + maintenance + insurance); netYield = (netOperatingIncome / purchasePrice) x 100`

**Variables:**

- `purchasePrice`: Property purchase price or current market value, in INR
- `monthlyRent`: Expected or actual monthly rental income, in INR
- `vacancyRate`: Percentage of the year the property is expected to sit unoccupied

Reference: Matches the gross/net rental yield methodology used by Indian real-estate portals such as NoBroker and Housing.com.

## Assumptions

- Assumes rent and expenses stay constant for the year being evaluated; it does not project rent escalation or expense inflation over multiple years.
- Does not account for loan EMI or financing costs; yield is measured against the purchase price, not the cash actually invested.

## Frequently asked questions

### How should I estimate vacancy rate for a holiday or seasonal rental?

Look at how many months of the year the property is realistically occupied, based on tourist season or platform booking history if you already have it, and convert that to a percentage rather than assuming it is rented out year-round.
