Family rental The property is overpriced, with a fair value of only €292,278 compared to the €520,000 listing price, leading to a significant gap of 43.8%. Additionally, the yield of 2.7% gross may not provide adequate returns for families seeking long-term homes in the area. Long-term rental With a listing price significantly higher than its fair value, this apartment presents a challenge for long-term rental viability in an evolving rental market. The property's current gross yield of 2.7% indicates limited profitability, which may deter potential long-term tenants. Buy-and-hold Given the considerable discrepancy between the listing price of €520,000 and the fair value of €292,278, this investment strategy is hindered by the high entry cost. The 2.7% gross yield further emphasizes the limited appreciation potential, making it a less desirable option for a buy-and-hold approach.
Economic Dependency Risk The economic stability score of 80/100 suggests a reliance on a limited number of sectors, which may jeopardize tenant stability at the lower score of 75/100 if market conditions shift negatively.
