Long-term rental The 3-bed apartment in Castêlo da Maia is currently listed at €378,000, which is 10% above its fair value of €340,065, indicating that the investment is overpriced. With a gross yield of 0%, the long-term rental strategy appears financially unviable as it offers no immediate returns. Family rental At a listing price of €378,000, the property is overpriced by 10% compared to its fair value of €340,065, which limits its attractiveness for families seeking affordable housing options. Given the lack of rental yield and the prevailing market conditions, a family rental strategy may not generate sustainable cash flow. Buy-and-hold The apartment's asking price of €378,000 reflects a 10% premium over its fair valuation of €340,065, marking it as overpriced in the current market. Therefore, utilizing a buy-and-hold strategy could result in extended periods of stagnant investment growth and a lack of rental income, making it a less attractive option overall.
Tenant turnover risk The tenant stability score of 70/100 indicates a potential for higher turnover, which could lead to increased vacancy rates impacting cash flow stability.
