It does not deduct vacancy, management, maintenance, owner taxes, income tax or acquisition costs, and it does not include property appreciation. Those depend on the negotiated price, self-management, tax status, Promoted Housing and the condition of the unit, so net return is computed deal by deal. Standard reference scenario in the methodology. Related guide: property taxes in Uruguay.
