1-bedroom, 1-bathroom apartment of 60 m², built in 1997, energy rating D. Located on rua do Alecrim, Rio de Mouro parish, Sintra municipality, Lisbon district.

The valuation. The asking price of €215,000 is significantly above the fair value of €123,648, resulting in a markup of €91,352 (42.5%). This property is overpriced and does not represent a sound investment opportunity. Buy-to-flip angle. A resale strategy would require significant renovations to modernize the apartment and raise its appeal, thereby justifying a higher resale price in this competitive market. Quick turnover in a mixed neighbourhood may still appeal to investors. Buy-to-let angle. The estimated rental income of €788/month provides a gross yield of 4.4%, making it suitable for long-term family rental strategies. Despite the average condition, consistent demand should keep occupancy rates stable.
Fair value modelled at €123,648 from the area baseline, adjusted for condition and location. Asking €215,000 sits €91,352 (42.5%) above — overpriced versus fair value.
Asking €215,000 versus the rua do Alecrim area baseline of €178,260 (€2,971/m²) for a median-condition unit of this size — the gap before quality adjustments.

Long-term rental While a long-term rental strategy may seem viable due to the 4.4% gross yield, the property's price tag of €215,000 is significantly above its fair value of €123,648, indicating it is overpriced. This discrepancy suggests that potential returns may not justify the initial investment in the long run. Family rental Although family rentals often attract steady tenants, the apartment’s asking price is 42.5% over the assessed fair value, making it a questionable investment. Given the property's condition rating of 73/100 and the neighbourhood rating of 65/100, the high price could limit potential attractive rental agreements. Buy-and-hold Investing in this property with a buy-and-hold strategy is not advisable, as its current listing price of €215,000 far exceeds its fair value of €123,648, leading to an overpriced status. The long-term implications of holding a high-value asset in a moderately rated neighbourhood may detract from overall portfolio performance.
Economic Vulnerability The economic stability score of 70/100 suggests potential fluctuations in market conditions that could impact property value, while the tenant stability score of 60/100 indicates a higher risk of tenant turnover, both contributing to an unstable investment environment.
