Long-term rental The 2-bed apartment in Valongo, listed at €230,000, is overpriced by 32.9% compared to its fair value of €154,261, restricting long-term rental profitability. With a gross yield of only 4.3% and a neighbourhood rating of 70/100, the financial return may not justify the investment in this property. Buy-and-hold Despite the ongoing demand in the Matosinhos area, the apartment's price exceeds its fair value, making it a less attractive buy-and-hold investment. The gap of 32.9% from fair value, combined with a moderate condition score of 71/100, suggests potential capital appreciation may be limited. Family rental The Valongo apartment, while situated in a somewhat decent neighbourhood, is overpriced by 32.9%, indicating the risk of lower demand for family rental tenants at such a price point. The property yields a gross return of just 4.3%, which may deter families looking for value in their rental choices.
Tenant instability risk The tenant stability score is 60/100, indicating potential volatility in rental income due to possible tenant turnover and associated vacancy risks.
