São Gonçalo de Lagos, Lagos, Faro
Area baseline €356,184 + condition +€5,578 + location +€37,043 = modelled fair value of €398,805 (€3,910/m²), a €1,195 (0.3%) gap versus the €400,000 asking price.
Short-term vacation rental The property is priced at €400,000, which exceeds its fair value by 0.3%, suggesting that it may be challenging to achieve a strong return on investment in this sector. With a gross yield of only 2.9% and a condition rating of 79/100, the property is less appealing for short-term vacation rental opportunities in the competitive Algarve market. Buy-and-hold Investing in this property as a buy-and-hold strategy appears limited given the €400,000 listing price, which is only slightly above the fair value of €398,805. The potential for long-term appreciation is compromised by a minimal gap from fair value alongside a low gross yield of 2.9%, indicating limited cash flow potential. Luxury market Despite being in the picturesque Algarve region, the property is overpriced at €400,000, only marginally above its fair value of €398,805, which diminishes its appeal in the luxury market. The relatively low yield of 2.9% and decent condition rating (79/100) suggest that this property may not attract affluent buyers looking for prime luxury investments.
Economic vulnerability The economic stability score of 65/100 indicates potential fluctuations in the local market that could adversely affect rental income.
