NOMAD REAL ESTATE YIELD INDEX 2023
We created this index to educate aspiring global citizens about the true value of international real estate.
Yield is another name for the rate of return. In commercial real estate, when we talk about yield, it refers to the money earned in a year from an investment. We calculate this as a percentage of the total cost of the asset or sometimes the estimated current value.
There are two types of yield: levered yield and unlevered yield. Levered yield includes the income earned after financing costs have been paid, while unlevered yield does not. Yield only measures the income produced by a property.
While most indices – and most people – think of a yield in terms of pricing, at Nomad Capitalist, we realized countries have very different requirements for real estate investment.
To get the full picture, we look at how much money you can earn from renting the property, how much you can borrow, all the expenses involved in buying and selling the property, and the taxes you’re required to pay.
The Nomad Real Estate Yield Index speaks to those seeking personal freedom and financial prosperity in an evolving world by conducting a comprehensive analysis of the actual worth of global real estate in practical terms.
PURPOSE OF THIS INDEX
Emerging Markets
We wanted to present the up-and-coming real estate markets across the globe. The world is constantly changing. Countries that were once snubbed are now some of the world’s most attractive and sought-after real estate markets, places where you can make profitable investments and pay lower taxes.
Go Where You're Treated Best
Investing in property offshore can be doubly profitable. Not only can you enjoy a direct return on your investment, it can also lay the foundation for obtaining a second residence and even a second citizenship.This, in turn, provides you with more opportunities to invest and travel while also reducing your taxes.
Plan B
We live in uncertain times. The world is ever-changing and it pays to be prepared. Having a second base not only provides you with a place to escape to, it’s also a worthwhile investment. More high-net-worth individuals are leaving their home countries for better jurisdictions, not just to take advantage of the exceptional real estate but also for favorable taxes.

HOW WE RANK REAL ESTATE YIELD
- 1. Price to Income Ratio 25%
The formula takes into account things like how much money families earn, the size of the property, and the average cost per square meter in a city center.
- 2. Gross Rental Yield 37.5%
- 3. Loan Affordability Index 12.5%
We relied on Numbeo Affordability by Country Index 2023 data to determine affordability scores.
Loan affordability gauges the ability of an average household to meet the income requirements for obtaining a mortgage loan on a standard home in the country. It is determined by considering the latest data on both income and home prices, with a higher value indicating better affordability.
- 4. Round Trip Cost 12.5%
When analyzing data, we took into account factors such as notary fees, lawyer fees, real estate agent fees, transfer taxes, government transfer fees, and costs paid by both the buyer and the seller.
- 5. Rental Income Tax 12.5%
