About YieldBadger

Last updated November 3, 2026

YieldBadger helps people check the numbers on a real estate deal before they commit to it. It's run by ToUpper LLC.

What's here

• 25 free calculators for rentals, flips, financing and commercial property
• Local rent estimates by ZIP code and city
• A market finder that compares US counties
• A rental dashboard that keeps your data in your own browser
• Guides and a glossary in plain English

How it's free

The site is paid for by ads. There's no signup, no paywall and nothing to subscribe to.

Where the numbers come from

Local figures come from public sources such as HUD, the Census Bureau, FHFA and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Every calculator shows how it works, and the data sources page lists each source and how often it updates.

What this isn't

We aren't financial advisors, tax professionals, lawyers or appraisers. Everything here is an estimate for general information, so check important decisions with a qualified professional. See the disclaimer.
