Short-term vacation rental The property's listing price of €299,000 significantly exceeds its fair value of €147,117, indicating it is overpriced by 50.8%. With a gross yield of 5.1% and a neighbourhood score of 61/100, the potential returns may not justify the high investment costs. Buy-and-hold Investing in this property at the current listing price may not be advisable, given its substantial markup over fair value. The combination of a 5.1% gross yield and a moderate condition rating of 75/100 suggests that long-term appreciation is uncertain against such a high initial cost.
Economic Volatility Risk With an economic stability score of 55/100, the property is susceptible to fluctuations that could negatively impact rental income, jeopardizing investment returns. Tenant Turnover Risk A tenant stability score of 55/100 indicates a higher likelihood of tenant turnover, which can lead to increased vacancy rates and added costs for leasing and maintenance.
