Long-term rental The current listing price of €219,000 for this 1-bed apartment in Cidade da Maia presents an investment opportunity that is overpriced by 44.9% compared to its fair value of €120,659. While the gross yield of 4.8% indicates some potential for returns, the significant gap in valuation raises red flags for long-term rental viability.
