I do calculate the yield on my BTL as the price I paid for it, it is worth more now but that is more to the fact that I have not changed rent for about 3 years although when the tenants leave I will relook at it. I would think I would probably sell the property and invest the money in PM and PP.

Not a landlord myself as such bar having a few small shares in the likes of thc & pm but, I would calculate my yield based on the original price paid. If a capital gain becomes material, that is a bonus. The only time I would calculate differently is if there is a capital los (reduction on original price paid) IMHO that is economic illiteracy. Suppose you bought a house before the war for £500 and you are now letting it for £5000 pa would you call that a yield of 1000%? You have to base the yield on the opportunity cost of the current value, where else you could invest it. Had I ever been fortunate enough to experience such a scenario, I'd be laughing all the way to the bank
