📈 Rental yield is one of the most misunderstood parts of property investing.
Most Aussies focus only on capital growth, but yield can make or break your cash flow — especially in a high-rate environment.
In this episode of The Mortgage Chat, I break down:
🔥 Gross yield vs net yield
🔥 How much yield you actually need in 2025
🔥 What high-yield properties REALLY look like
🔥 How yield helps balance a negatively geared portfolio
🔥 Why some investors get stuck because they ignore rental income
If you’re trying to build a strong, sustainable property portfolio, understanding yield is non-negotiable. I’ll walk you through the numbers in a simple, no-BS way so you can make smarter decisions and boost your cash flow.
