70 days on market — a balanced market: some room to negotiate; not a fire sale. The asking price in Labone is a starting point, not the number you pay — budget the 12% down to the realistic range.

Gross rental yield · Labone

12.6%

Sale (apartment 2bed): $200,000 ≈ ₵2,268,000
Rent (3BR): $2,100/mo × 12 = ₵285,768/yr
285,768 ÷ ₵2,268,000 = 12.6%

That is unusually strong — check the rent isn't a furnished corporate let inflating the ratio. Yields combine our own sale and rent medians converted at the live rate ($1 = ₵11.34) — the two datasets no portal holds together.

About Labone

Buy vs rent here
