Guia, Albufeira, Faro
Area baseline €955,710 + condition +€39,375 + location +€72,634 = modelled fair value of €1,067,719 (€3,390/m²), a €182,281 (14.6%) gap versus the €1,250,000 asking price.
Short-term vacation rental Despite being situated in a tourist-driven economy, the property is overpriced at €1,250,000, with a fair value estimate of €1,067,719 reflecting a 14.6% gap. At a gross yield of 2.3%, the investment may not produce sufficiently high returns for short-term vacation rental purposes, especially in a neighbourhood rated at 69/100. Long-term rental The property, listed above fair value at €1,250,000, limits its attractiveness for long-term rental investments, given a fair value of €1,067,719 and consequently low gross yield of 2.3%. The 88/100 condition rating is a positive attribute, but the neighbourhood rating of 69/100 suggests potential tenant quality may not justify the high acquisition cost. Buy-and-hold Holding a property purchased at €1,250,000, which is significantly overvalued compared to its fair value of €1,067,719, does not present an optimal investment opportunity for appreciation. The economic context of Guia is promising, yet the resulting low yield of 2.3% poses a challenge for generating attractive long-term returns in this investment strategy.
Economic Volatility Risk With an economic stability score of 55/100, the property may face challenges due to less favorable economic conditions impacting rental income and property value.
