Long-term rental The property in Cristelos, Boim e Ordem has a gross yield of only 3.7%, which does not justify its listing price of €230,000 given the fair value of €148,362. With a condition score of 64/100 and a neighbourhood score of 56/100, the limited local amenities make it less attractive for sustainable rental income. Buy-and-hold Investing in this property as a buy-and-hold strategy is not advisable, as it is overpriced by 35.5% compared to its fair value. The semi-rural location near Porto offers some commuter opportunities, but the reduced investment appeal due to low neighborhood scores could hinder long-term value appreciation.
Tenant turnover risk The combined tenant stability score of 58/100 suggests a higher likelihood of tenant turnover, which may lead to increased vacancy rates and reduced rental income.
