UK buy-to-let house prices & rental yield, mapped by postcode

Yield is the number most house-price sites don't show you: gross rental yield is a property's annual rent as a percentage of what it costs to buy: the single number that lets you compare a £120,000 flat in Aberdeen against a £600,000 flat in London on equal terms as an investment, not just as a place to live. Figures below are recalculated monthly from live market listings.
