This page shows gross residential rental yields for 1-bedroom apartments across cities in Costa Rica.

Each yield is computed from our own median asking-rent and asking-price data: (monthly rent × 12) ÷ purchase price, expressed as a percentage. For example, a 1-bed renting at $500/month with a $200,000 purchase price yields 3.0%. Figures are updated biannually, with history available from H2 2022.
