largo do Rossio de São João Batista
Area baseline €1,026,648 + condition +€36,750 + location +€82,132 = modelled fair value of €1,145,530 (€3,896/m²), a €144,470 (11.2%) gap versus the €1,290,000 asking price.
Short-term vacation rental The potential for short-term vacation rentals in Lagos remains strong; however, the property is overpriced at €1,290,000 compared to its fair value of €1,145,530, indicating a gap of 11.2%. Given the yield of 0% gross, the high entry price discourages long-term profitability in this seasonal and tourism-dependent market. Buy-and-hold With a fair value of €1,145,530 against the listing price of €1,290,000, the property does not present an attractive buy-and-hold opportunity as it is overpriced by 11.2%. The ongoing economic stability in the Algarve's tourist-heavy zone does not justify the elevated investment cost, limiting the potential for significant appreciation over time.
Moderate economic and tenant instability The scores of 65/100 for both economic and tenant stability indicate a moderate risk, suggesting potential fluctuations in property income and tenant reliability over time.
