The gross yield of 2.9% indicates limited profitability potential for long-term renting. Family rental With a listing price of €295,000 and a fair value of €101,939, this property is overpriced by 65.4%, which undermines its appeal as a family rental option. The neighborhood's basic amenities and average condition score of 77/100 suggest modest demand from families. Buy-and-hold Given that this 1-bed apartment in Vila do Conde is priced at €295,000—significantly above its fair value of €101,939—investors should be cautious with a 65.4% markup making it overpriced. The low gross yield of 2.9% further complicates the viability of a buy-and-hold strategy, particularly in a suburban market with only average tenant quality.
Economic and Tenant Stability Risk The property has moderate economic and tenant stability scores of 65/100, indicating potential vulnerability to market fluctuations and tenant turnover.
