rua Doutor José Alves Moreira
Area baseline €246,642 + condition -€3,630 + location +€10,824 = modelled fair value of €307,872 (€3,048/m²), a €175,628 (36.3%) gap versus the €483,500 asking price.
Long-term rental The property is overpriced with a fair value of €307,872 compared to the listing price of €483,500, creating a potential gap of 36.3%. Given the local economy’s reliance on seasonal employment and a modest gross yield of 3.6%, the long-term rental strategy may not provide satisfactory returns. Short-term vacation rental With the property priced significantly above its fair value, the return on investment may be limited despite its location in a semi-touristic area. The seasonal nature of tourism in the Algarve, combined with the neighborhood's lower amenities rating of 59/100, suggests that investing in a short-term vacation rental could be a misstep. Not ideal for: Luxury market, Student housing
Economic downturn risk The economic stability score of 45/100 indicates a significant risk of economic downturn impacting tenant retention and property value.
