Download the 2026 Yield Intelligence Report — 5 international markets delivering outsized gross returns right now, benchmarked against acquisition cost, STR occupancy, tax treatment, and compression risk.
5 Markets Delivering 6–12% Gross Returns — Benchmarked. Independent. No Developer Affiliations.
When UK, US, and Australian residential yields are compressed to 3–4%, yield maximizers go where capital hasn't crowded yet. This report covers 5 markets where supply dynamics, tourism growth, and tax structure combine to deliver returns that domestic markets simply can't.
0% CGT. 0% rental income tax. Golden Visa from AED 2M. 150K–250K unit supply wave balanced by tourism infrastructure. Freehold ownership for foreigners in designated zones.
CGT suspension currently active — but expires December 31, 2026. EUR 5,039/m² average entry. Hellinikon mega-development under construction. 40% of buyers foreign. Window is closing.
16.8% YoY price growth nationally. Silver Coast and Alentejo undervalued vs. Lisbon. EU citizenship pathway still available via non-RE investment. NHR regime restructured but active.
Tourism-driven short-term rental demand. Low acquisition cost. Leasehold structure for foreign buyers. Highest gross yield range in this report — with commensurate operational and structural risk profiled.
USD-denominated rental income. Playa del Carmen and Tulum continue to absorb Airbnb demand. Fideicomiso ownership structure explained. Currency and regulatory risk quantified.
Complete comparison: acquisition cost, gross yield, net yield after costs, tax treatment, ownership structure, liquidity, and compression risk rating for all 5 markets.
Note on Gross vs. Net Yields: Developer marketing materials always quote gross yield. This report also models net yield after local property management fees, platform costs, maintenance, and local taxes — because that's the number that actually reaches your account.
Total cost of entry per market including purchase price, transaction taxes, legal fees, and agent commissions — not just the headline price per square metre.
Short-term rental occupancy rates and seasonality data by market. What a realistic 70% occupancy actually produces in gross revenue — by month.
Freehold, leasehold, company structures, and fideicomiso arrangements explained by market — including the hidden restrictions most buyers discover after purchase.
How rental income and capital gains are taxed in each market. Which jurisdictions offer 0% CGT, which have treaty benefits, and which have tax traps for non-residents.
Each market scored on the risk that current yields compress over the next 36 months — including supply pipeline, regulatory trajectory, and tourism dependence.
Every market assessed against the three criteria we apply to every opportunity: Arbitrage (mispricing vs. fundamentals), Scarcity (supply constraint), and Exit (liquidity when you want out).
Are these yields realistic?
Yes — but the report explains the difference between marketed gross yields and the net yields that reach your account after management, maintenance, platform fees, and local taxes. We show both numbers for every market.
Is MPH affiliated with any of the markets covered?
No. We have no developer relationships, referral arrangements, or financial interest in any property transaction in any of the markets covered. Our only product is the intelligence itself.
Does this apply to my current capital level?
The report covers markets with entry points from approximately $150K to $500K. We note minimum practical investment thresholds for each market — including total acquisition cost, not just the purchase price.
I already own international property. Is this still relevant?
Yes — particularly for benchmarking your current yield against what's available in comparable risk-adjusted markets, and identifying whether your current allocation is being compressed.
