Questions
Straight answers
The questions buyers ask most, answered the way the numbers answer them.
- Is the yield you quote gross or net?
- Net. Every figure is labelled, and the net ones are calculated after service charges, a stated vacancy allowance and a management fee, on the registered transaction price.
- Why registered transactions and not asking prices?
- Asking prices are what a seller hopes for. Registered transactions are what a buyer actually paid. A yield built on the asking price flatters the seller and misleads the buyer.
- What is resale liquidity?
- How many units in the same building resold in the last 24 months, and at what spread to the previous price. A high yield you cannot exit is theoretical. Liquidity tells you whether you can get out.
- Do you advertise specific properties?
- No. This is an advisory and research layer, not a listings site. For permitted listings you are deep-linked to the brokerage. The advice is about which numbers to trust, not which unit to buy today.
- How often is the index published?
- Quarterly to start, moving to monthly once the data pipeline and the content cadence both hold.
- Do you promise a guaranteed return?
- Never. No guaranteed returns, no guaranteed appreciation, no guaranteed visa outcomes. Every figure carries its source and date.
