### What income should we aim for for the project to really hold?

This calculator does not ask you to enter a target rent up front. It starts from the capital invested, expenses and your operating method to determine the level of income to achieve.

#### What the tool brings you

A more strategic reading than a simple gross yield.

**Actual invested capital**The tool adds the price of the property, acquisition costs and installation budget so as not to underestimate the need for profitability.

**Yield targets**You obtain the rental levels or average price per night necessary for several yield levels.

**Integrated charges and management**Fixed costs and management are taken into account, which gives a much more realistic reading of the project.

**Important**
The result is not a commercial promise. You use it to check if the target market can support the monthly rent or average price per night needed.

**How to read this result?**
If the average price per night or the monthly rent required are higher than what the market can absorb in the area and type of property targeted, the project is either too expensive, undersized in terms of yield, or too heavy in operating costs.

Marrakech rental yield

### Calculate the yield of a rental investment in Marrakech

Rental yield cannot be measured from monthly rent or nightly rate alone. To properly analyse a property investment in Marrakech, potential income must be compared with the capital actually invested, acquisition costs, vacancy, management and operating expenses.

#### Short-term rentals: factor in occupancy rate

A high nightly rate does not guarantee a strong return. The number of nights actually sold, commissions, management, housekeeping and low-season periods can significantly affect annual net income.

#### Long-term rentals: watch vacancy and expenses

For long-term rentals, rental stability must be weighed against potential vacancy, condominium fees, maintenance and the total capital committed to the investment.

### Frequently asked questions about rental yield in Marrakech

What rental yield should you target in Marrakech?There is no single yield target that applies to every property. Area, property type, positioning, operating model, expenses and purchase price must be analysed together.

Should you calculate gross or net rental yield?Gross yield allows a quick comparison, but net operating return is more useful for decision-making because it includes the entered costs and management. It is still calculated before personal taxation, financing costs and any items not entered.

Are short-term rentals always more profitable than long-term rentals?No. Short-term rental can generate more turnover, but it also involves more vacancy, management and variable costs. The right choice depends on the property and its actual market.

Calculation method

### What ‘net return’ means in this calculator

The calculator computes a net operating return: it starts with the invested capital and deducts the fixed costs entered as well as the management or concierge commission entered. It does not calculate your personal taxation, loan interest, borrower insurance or costs that have not been entered.

For short-term rentals, the result depends directly on the number of nights sold per month. Platform commissions, cleaning, linen and other variable costs must be included in your assumptions when they are not already covered by the management percentage.
