Long-term rental The property is not suitable for long-term rental due to its substantial gap of 41.5% from the fair value of €192,548, indicating that it is overpriced at €329,000. Additionally, with a gross yield of only 3.8%, this investment may not deliver sufficient return given the current market conditions. Family rental As a family rental option, this apartment is overpriced at €329,000, significantly exceeding the fair value of €192,548. The neighbourhood ratings of 72/100 suggest decent amenities, yet the investment's yield of 3.8% does not justify the elevated price. Buy-and-hold The buy-and-hold strategy for this property is hindered by its 41.5% markup over the fair value of €192,548, indicating it is overpriced at €329,000. Considering the 3.8% gross yield, potential appreciation may not be able to offset the initial overvaluation in a potentially stagnating rental market.
Economic downturn risk A shift in the economy could negatively impact the property given its economic stability score of 70, which indicates moderate risk, and may affect tenant retention despite a relatively stable tenant score of 75.
