AN EXPERIMENT / REAL ESTATE PROFITABILITYTHE SAME SPREADSHEET I USE AT SEYF

Real estate
profitability.

The same methodology I use to evaluate opportunities at Seyf, Uruguay's real-estate market rules included, turned into an interactive tool. Load a property's price and rent —or try an example— and watch gross and net profitability come together, with every assumption in plain sight.

Example figures, not real listings. Change any field to try your own case.

Optional: work needed before it can be rented.

This is an educational tool built on the methodology I apply in the Uruguayan market. Default values are reference points: update them with the current exchange rate and costs before making a real decision. This is not financial advice.

How to interpret profitability

Gross profitability

The return before operating costs: annual rent over the gross investment (price + purchase costs). Useful for comparing opportunities quickly, without going into operational detail.

Net profitability

What is actually left after taxes, commissions, vacancy and maintenance. Between 6% and 8% is considered good; above 8%, excellent.
