Short-term vacation rental This property presents a significant price gap of 35.4% compared to its fair value, indicating it is overpriced at €450,000, which diminishes potential returns for vacation rentals. With a gross yield of only 3.3%, the investment does not offer an attractive opportunity in a competitive tourist market. Long-term rental At €450,000, the property is overpriced compared to its fair value of €290,580, leading to concerns about its long-term rental viability. The current yield of 3.3% falls short of appealing returns, especially in a neighborhood rated 67/100, which may limit tenant demand and rental growth potential.
Economic and Tenant Instability Risk: With both economic and tenant stability scores at 65/100, there is a heightened risk of fluctuating rental income and potential vacancies due to marginal financial conditions and tenant turnover.
