Long-term rental The property is overpriced at €225,000, which is 14.5% above its fair value of €196,478, limiting the potential for attractive long-term rental returns. With a gross yield of only 4.2% and a condition score of 69/100, it may not attract high-quality tenants in the competitive rental market. Family rental Despite the apartment's spacious size, the asking price of €225,000 is 14.5% over fair value, suggesting diminished value for family rentals. The neighbourhood score of 62/100 could deter families seeking higher-quality living options and amenities. Buy-and-hold The buy-and-hold strategy may not yield favorable returns as the property is listed at €225,000, significantly above its fair value of €196,478. Given the current gross yield of 4.2%, an overpriced asset may undermine the long-term appreciation potential in the evolving market of Maia.
Economic fluctuation risk The property faces potential volatility in rental income due to both the economic stability and tenant stability scores of 65/100, indicating a moderate risk of financial instability.
