Monthly rent (not airbnb) = R
Value of apartment = R * 200
Assuming R is net of all costs (net rent) but BEFORE depreciation, taxes, etc then it's a 6% yield which seems the norm.
Meanwhile the 19yr T-Bond is paying 13% after taxes though there's no inflation adjustment but the "excess" 7% can be reinvested.
