rua Sol, 139
Area baseline €149,800 + condition -€12,873 + location +€14,980 = modelled fair value of €151,907 (€1,420/m²), a €81,093 (34.8%) gap versus the €233,000 asking price.
Long-term rental The property in Ermesinde is overpriced with a listing price of €233,000, which is 28.9% above the fair value of €165,677. While it offers a gross yield of 5.1%, this diminished yield relative to its listing price suggests lower investor returns in a competitive rental market. Buy-and-hold Investing in this 3-bed apartment as a buy-and-hold strategy is not advisable due to its overpriced status; it sits at a significant gap from its fair value. Although the location benefits from good infrastructure and proximity to Porto, the current asking price limits potential for capital appreciation over time. Family rental The apartment’s high price point makes it less suitable for family rental opportunities, especially as it is currently valued 28.9% above fair market value. Despite its decent condition and neighbourhood rating, the property’s cost could deter family renters from pursuing long-term commitments in the area.
Economic Dependency Risk The economic stability score of 80 highlights a relatively stable market, but with a tenant stability score of 75, there's a risk of higher vacancy rates potentially impacting cash flow.
