The comparison counts only the costs of owning you never get back: interest, running costs and what the deposit and purchase costs could earn elsewhere. Loan repayments build equity, so they are left out. So is any rise in the home's value, because nobody knows it in advance. Rents here are what households renting from private landlords paid on average, after housing benefit, for new and long-standing tenancies alike (CBS); a new tenant usually pays more, so the yield reads low. Social housing, rented from housing associations, is left out, and a municipality with too few private tenants takes the Netherlands' figure.
