Short-term vacation rental Despite the attractive tourism-driven location, the property is overpriced at €490,000, only marginally above its fair value of €487,036. With a gross yield of 3.4%, the potential returns from short-term rentals do not justify the current price. Long-term rental At this price point, the property also presents challenges for long-term rentals, particularly given its 57/100 neighbourhood score and limited tenant quality. The gap of 0.6% against fair value indicates that rental income may not sufficiently cover the high purchase price. Buy-and-hold Investing in a buy-and-hold strategy for this property is undermined by its overvaluation, with current pricing offering minimal room for appreciation in a tourism-dependent economy. The 78/100 condition rating suggests it may not command a premium in the future amidst local competition. Not ideal for: Student housing, Luxury market, High-volume commercial
Economic and Tenant Instability The economic stability score of 50/100 and tenant stability score of 60/100 indicate a significant risk of rental income volatility and potential difficulty in tenant retention, which could affect overall returns on investment.
