Real Example:
£120,000 for a 2 bedroom apartment purchased ready to occupy
£650pcm rent
£90,000 mortgage (75%) on a 2.9% interest only loan.
£31,200 capital employed (deposit and conveyance costs)
£3,053 pre tax annual income representing 9.7% return on capital employed after allowing for all normal operating and letting costs.
If the asset price increases by 10% in the year to £132,000 then the pre tax gain is £15,053 (£3,053 in cash and £12,000 in equity)
