About the data
PeruYield exists because good numbers on the Lima property market are hard to find. Brokers quote gross yields and headline prices; portals list asking prices with no context; and almost nobody puts long-term rental and Airbnb returns side by side. We do — for every investor district, updated daily.
What we track
Every day we collect active apartment sale and rental listings across Lima's main investor districts, and we retain the full history so we can show real trends, not just today's snapshot. Separately, we process a short-term-rental (Airbnb) dataset — thousands of listings with nightly rates, occupancy and revenue — and assign each to a district so we can compute per-district Airbnb income that isn't published anywhere for free.
How we calculate returns
Long-term yield is net: we take asking rent against asking price and subtract the real running costs of holding a Lima rental — property and municipal taxes, a vacancy allowance, and rental income tax — and load purchase costs onto the price. It carries no mantenimiento, because in a Lima long-term let the tenant pays that directly. Airbnb yield is published both gross and net, and the net carries the platform fee, a real utilities bill, the mantenimiento its host does pay, and the same taxes. Every comparison on this site is net against net, on one cost model. We never compare a gross number to a net one — not in a verdict, not in a ranking, not in a guide.
Why trust it
We don't sell you apartments. We have no listings to move and no commission on your purchase. The free data is the same data we use ourselves — the only thing we ask for is your email, so we can send you the weekly read. Everything on this site is market data, not investment advice; verify anything specific before you act.
