Long-term rental The property is overpriced at €350,000 compared to the fair value of €259,009, representing a significant gap of 26.0%. The gross yield of 4.6% does not justify the high price tag, making it a less appealing option for long-term rental investment. Buy-and-hold Investing in this 2-bed apartment as a buy-and-hold strategy is unfavorable, given that it is priced well above fair value. With the current fair value indicating an overpricing issue, future appreciation may not compensate for the initial investment cost. Family rental While the apartment could cater to families due to its decent condition and neighborhood ratings, the price of €350,000 exceeds the fair market value by 26.0%. This significant premium makes the property a questionable choice for family rental, hampering overall rental yield potential.
Economic Dependence Risk The property could face vulnerability due to its economic stability score of 75/100, indicating potential fluctuations or downturns in the local economy.
