Common questions
What others asks before signing up?
What is a good rental yield in Australia?
Gross rental yields vary by city and property type. In 2025-26, Sydney house yields average around 2.7%, Melbourne 3.2%, Brisbane 3.5%, Perth 4.0% and Darwin 5.6%. Units typically yield 1–2 percentage points higher. This calculator gives you an instant estimate for a specific property — your broker or property specialist confirms the final figures after reviewing your circumstances.
How accurate is this investment property yield calculator?
It uses the standard gross and net yield formulas and Australian principal-and-interest amortisation, so the output is accurate for the figures you enter. It is a price indication only — actual rental income, expenses and tax position depend on the specific property, tenant market and your individual tax circumstances.
Does this calculator account for negative gearing and depreciation?
Yes. Toggle on tax analysis to see the estimated tax benefit of negative gearing based on your marginal tax rate (2025-26 ATO brackets). You can also include an estimated depreciation deduction covering Division 40 plant and equipment and Division 43 capital works. A quantity surveyor prepares the formal depreciation schedule.
Can I add this calculator to my WordPress, Webflow, Squarespace, Wix or Shopify site?
Yes — embed it on any website with a single code snippet. The calculator inherits your branding, logo and contact details. If you do not have a website, Leadkit generates a free hosted page you can share directly.
What do I get when an investor fills out the calculator?
You receive an email notification with the investor's name, phone, email, suburb and the full property brief — purchase price, rent, loan amount, expenses and tax bracket. A branded PDF yield estimate is attached. Every lead is scored so you can prioritise callbacks.
Do I need my own website to use this?
No. Leadkit generates a free hosted quote page for every calculator you create. Share the link on social media, in email signatures or on listing portals. You can also embed the calculator on your own site when you are ready.
Is Leadkit really free?
Yes. Free lets you add up to 3 calculators to your website and receive 10 leads per month — no credit card. Every lead beyond the cap is still captured and held for you; upgrading to Pro ($29/mo) opens them all retroactively and removes the cap.
Do I need to know how to code?
No. You get an embed code (one line of HTML). Paste it into your website builder — Wix, Squarespace, WordPress, or any custom site. That's it.
How accurate are the price estimates?
You configure the calculator formulas to match your actual pricing. Leadkit provides the framework; you set the numbers. Estimates can be as detailed or as rough as you like.
What happens with lead data?
All lead data is stored securely in your workspace. You own it. We never sell or share your leads with anyone.
Can I use Leadkit as an agency for multiple clients?
Yes — our Agency plan lets you create and manage separate workspaces for each of your clients, all from one dashboard.
What's the difference between the plans?
Free: up to 3 calculators, 10 leads/month (over-cap leads held + locked until upgrade). Pro: unlimited leads, unlimited calculators, white-label, branded email sending, analytics, email templates. Agency: everything in Pro plus multi-workspace management.

How it works
How this yield calculator is calculated
This calculator produces an estimate of rental yield, cash flow and tax position based on the figures you enter. It is not a binding quote — your broker or property specialist will confirm the final numbers after reviewing your specific circumstances.
GST handling: Residential rental income is input-taxed for GST purposes — landlords do not charge GST on rent and cannot claim GST credits on most rental expenses. This calculator does not include GST.
1
Gross rental yield
Annual rent (weekly rent multiplied by 52) divided by purchase price, expressed as a percentage. This is the headline yield figure before expenses.
(weekly_rent × 52) ÷ purchase_price × 100
2
Net rental yield
Annual rent minus total annual expenses (council rates, strata, insurance, maintenance, property management and land tax), divided by purchase price.
Net rental income minus annual principal-and-interest loan repayments. This gives the pre-tax weekly and annual cash flow — the actual money in or out of your pocket each period.
4
Tax position
Net rental income minus deductible interest and depreciation gives the taxable rental income. If negative (negatively geared), the loss is multiplied by your marginal tax rate to estimate the tax benefit. If positive, the same calculation estimates tax payable.
5
After-tax cash flow
Pre-tax cash flow adjusted for the tax benefit or liability. This is the bottom-line annual figure after holding costs, loan repayments and tax effects.
Gross rental yields vary significantly by capital city and property type. Units generally yield 1–2 percentage points higher than houses due to lower purchase prices relative to rent.

Sydney and Melbourne typically have the lowest yields but strongest long-term capital growth. Regional centres and northern capitals (Darwin, Brisbane, Perth) tend to offer higher yields. These are broad averages — individual suburb yields can vary significantly.
