Short-term vacation rental\nWith a listing price of €399,000, the property is significantly overpriced compared to its fair value of €191,197, creating a gap of 52.1%. Although the proximity to coastal amenities suggests potential for tourism, the gross yield of 2.9% does not justify the current price point, making it an unattractive option for short-term rentals.\n\nBuy-and-hold\nThe current listing price greatly exceeds the fair value, indicating that investing in this property as a buy-and-hold strategy would not be financially sound. Given its gross yield of 2.9% and the general conditions of the property, the long-term appreciation prospects appear limited, further reinforcing its overpriced status.\n\nFamily rental\nAt €399,000, this property is overpriced when compared to the fair value of €191,197, suggesting that potential returns on a family rental strategy are minimal. Despite a decent condition score of 87/100, the gross yield of 2.9% indicates that the property may not attract families looking for cost-effective renting solutions in a market like Olhão.
Tenant turnover risk With a tenant stability score of 65/100, there is a moderate risk of tenant turnover affecting cash flow and occupancy rates.
