Gavop is a real estate, housing & local data & analytics service. We get data from public sources such as the census bureau & private databases. Our data can be used by real estate and organizations to get further insights into local market dynamics. We analyzed rental yield trends from 2009 and 2015 for all counties in the U.S. Rental yields are impacted by factors such as home location, home facilities, employment opportunities, strata levies, and council rates
