rua Nova dos Loureiros, 30
Area baseline €173,530 + condition +€5,469 + location +€13,882 = modelled fair value of €192,881 (€2,755/m²), a €62,119 (24.4%) gap versus the €255,000 asking price.
Long-term rental The current asking price of €255,000 for the 1-bed apartment in Arcozelo reflects a 24.4% gap from its fair value of €192,881, making it an unattractive option for a long-term rental strategy. With a gross yield of only 3.5%, the investment does not justify the premium being asked. Buy-and-hold At €255,000, the property is overpriced compared to its fair value, presenting a significant risk for a buy-and-hold investment strategy. The potential for appreciation does not outweigh the current inflated price relative to market conditions. Family rental The property’s price of €255,000 exceeds its fair value by 24.4%, indicating it is overpriced and may not attract families seeking reasonable rental options in the area. Coupled with a modest yield of 3.5%, it lacks the essential competitive edge needed to be a viable family rental choice.
Economic Vulnerability The property's investment risk is elevated due to a strong economic stability score of 75 but a lower tenant stability score of 65, indicating potential volatility in rental income.
