Long-term rental This property is overpriced at €230,000, reflecting a 40.5% gap from its fair value of €136,964. While the yield of 4.2% is acceptable, the price suggests that the investment may not generate satisfactory returns over time. Family rental With a fair value considerably lower than the listing price, this property is considered overpriced for families seeking a rental option. Despite the proximity to Porto and decent livability, the inflated price may deter potential tenants from committing. Buy-and-hold The €230,000 price tag places this property in the overpriced category, which diminishes its attractiveness for long-term investors. Although the studio is in a decent location, the disparity from fair value indicates that waiting for an appreciation in property value could yield unsatisfactory results in the long run.
Tenant turnover risk High tenant turnover can occur due to a tenant stability score of 75/100, suggesting potential challenges in retaining long-term tenants, which can lead to increased vacancy rates and additional costs associated with re-letting the property.
