Thinking of this home as an investment? We will pull real comparable rents and run the full numbers with you.

The gross yield above is on the asking price, before taxes and upkeep; the cap rate is after them. A finished basement or second suite can push real rent above it. Taxes, fees, and vacancy vary by property, and cap rate is before financing.
