The importance of yield when buying an investment.

What is the importance of yield when buying an investment property in Australia?

Are you thinking of purchasing an investment property? Yes? Then yield is an important factor as it indicates the return on investment you can expect from the property. A high yield means more income from the rent, while a low yield indicates less rental income. Yields also will give you an indication of the rental market, property appreciation and capital growth. Ultimately, it is important to understand how much rental income you can expect from a property before investing in it.

Often you get a higher yield from a dual key property where you are getting two incomes from the one property. Even though yield I believe is key when investing, but it is also important to consider capital growth, long term growth and the location of where the investment property is located.
