Bangkok Rental Yields by District 2026: Data-Driven Analysis
Which Bangkok districts deliver the best rental returns in 2026? We analyzed verified rental data from the REVR platform to find out.
District-by-District Yields
| District | Gross Yield (Studio) | Gross Yield (1BR) | Gross Yield (2BR) | |----------|---------------------|-------------------|-------------------| | On Nut | 5.5β7.0% | 5.0β6.5% | 4.5β5.5% | | Bang Na | 6.0β7.5% | 5.5β7.0% | 4.5β6.0% | | Huai Khwang | 5.5β7.0% | 5.0β6.5% | 4.0β5.5% | | Thonglor | 3.5β4.5% | 3.0β4.0% | 2.5β3.5% | | Ekkamai | 4.0β5.0% | 3.5β4.5% | 3.0β4.0% | | Sathorn | 4.0β5.0% | 3.5β4.5% | 3.0β4.0% | | Ratchada | 5.0β6.5% | 4.5β6.0% | 4.0β5.0% | | Thonburi | 5.5β7.0% | 5.0β6.5% | 4.5β5.5% |
The Yield Sweet Spot: 3β5 Million THB
Properties in the 3β5 million THB range offer the best yield-to-risk ratio in Bangkok. At this price point:
- Strong rental demand from young professionals
- Affordable entry barrier for investors
- Lower vacancy risk than luxury segment
- Good liquidity when reselling
Areas to Watch
On Nut (Sukhumvit 77) β The #1 district for yield. Strong tenant demand from corporate expats and young professionals priced out of Ekkamai-Thonglor. Good BTS access, improving dining and retail scene.
Bang Na β The EEC connection is driving new demand. Mega Bang Na, the upcoming Bangkok Mall, and direct BTS access make this a yield hotspot.
Huai Khwang β Korean-town revitalization and MRT Orange Line extension are pushing up both rents and property values. Good pick for investors seeking yield + capital appreciation.
Luxury Segment Reality
Thonglor, Phrom Phong, and Chit Lom offer prestige but poor yields (2.5β4%). These are capital appreciation plays, not income investments. If you need rental income to cover mortgage costs, look at the mid-range districts instead.
REVR Data: Yield figures are calculated from actual closed lease contracts on REVR's platform, not from agent-reported asking prices. We only include properties that have been rented within the last 6 months.
