Shows the price/rent ratio and gross rental yield (%) for each country. The price/rent ratio indicates the years of rent which would be required to buy such an apartment.
- Price-to-Rent Ratio below 16: It's generally cheaper to buy a home than to rent.
- Price-to-Rent Ratio between 17 and 20: The cost of buying and renting is roughly comparable.
- Price-to-Rent Ratio above 21: It's generally cheaper to rent than to buy.
Note: The national Price/Rent Ratio is derived from our in-house research by individually dividing the median price of 1, 2, and 3 bedroom dwellings in each city by their respective median annual rent, with the final ratio representing the average of these calculations across all bedroom types.
