What a buyer pays in Orlando (metro area)

What it earns
The typical home here lets for about $1,942 a month against a purchase price of $383,656, which is 6.1% gross before tax. Neither figure is quoted per square metre in this market, but both come from the same source, so the ratio between them holds. It ranks 37th of 88 markets by gross yield. Rental income is taxed at 10–30% — the rate is not a single number here. That is the difference between 4.3% and 5.5% net on the same property. The 5.4% net figure we publish uses 10.7%.
