Long-term rental The 3.2% gross yield indicates that this property is not suitable for long-term rental investors, especially given the 46.3% gap above fair value. With a fair value of €120,724, the property is significantly overpriced, which limits its attractiveness for stable cash flow generation. Family rental Although the apartment is in a neighborhood with typical suburban amenities, its overpriced status at €225,000 makes it an unwise choice for families seeking affordable housing. The overall condition rating of 87/100 may appeal to tenants, but the steep price point overshadows its potential as a family rental. Buy-and-hold Investing in this property for a buy-and-hold strategy is risky, as the current listing price of €225,000 far exceeds its fair value of €120,724. The substantial gap of 46.3% suggests that holding onto this asset may result in long-term financial underperformance, given the current market conditions.
Economic and Tenant Stability Risk With both economic and tenant stability scores at 70/100, there is a moderate risk of fluctuations in income and occupancy rates, potentially impacting cash flow and investment returns.
