Guernsey rental yields
Indicative gross yields from this site's own live catalogue: the median monthly asking rent for each bedroom count, against the median asking price for the same bedroom count. Island-wide by design — splitting 67 live rentals by parish would leave samples too small to mean anything.
| Bedrooms | Median asking rent | Median asking price | Indicative gross yield | Sample |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 bed | £1,800/month | £370,000 | 5.8% | 13 rentals · 95 sales |
| 2 bed | £2,350/month | £525,000 | 5.4% | 25 rentals · 203 sales |
| 3 bed | £3,200/month | £760,000 | 5.1% | 24 rentals · 270 sales |
| 4 bed | £3,850/month | £1,135,000 | 4.1% | 5 rentals · 188 sales |
These are advertised rents divided by advertised prices. Achieved figures for both are typically lower than asking; voids, agent fees, maintenance, insurance and Guernsey income tax on rental profits all come out of the gross figure; and a median hides the spread within each bedroom count — an Open Market penthouse and a Local Market terrace are one bucket here. Treat this as a starting point for which segment to investigate, not an expected return. Rental listings are also a small sample (67 live with a price and bedroom count today) that turns over quickly, so these figures move week to week.
