Gross yield is modelled revenue ÷ modelled purchase price. Purchase prices are modelled from nightly-rate benchmarks, so always re-run the math with a real asking price on the market's investment page. Operating costs are modelled at 32% of gross revenue for a nightly rental (cleaning, supplies, utilities, platform fees, maintenance, insurance) and 14% for a monthly rental. Financing assumes a 25% down payment and a 30-year loan at 7%. These are planning assumptions, not quotes — replace them with your own numbers.
