Street median PSF (strata)

Indicative street yield
2.4% gross
2.1% net of property tax

An INDICATIVE street-level yield, not a yield for any particular unit: the current-quarter JTC street rent divided by the street's strata sale PSF median.

Net deducts the 10% non-residential property tax ONLY — not vacancy, maintenance, agent fees, financing, or the 9% GST on purchase.

Street figures cover strata deals only — land and strata PSF are not comparable.
