real estate income

Landlord's cash flow

Real estate income is money generated from property ownership—primarily rent from tenants, but also lease payments, parking fees, or other charges.

The term appears frequently in tax and investment contexts, where it's distinguished from wages or portfolio income: Most of her real estate income comes from two rental properties.

Real estate investment trusts (REITs) allow investors to receive real estate income without directly owning property.
