Short-term vacation rental The property's current listing price of €375,000 is notably above the fair value of €334,550, placing it at a 12.1% premium that does not support its potential as a short-term vacation rental investment. With a gross yield of 3.6%, the financial metrics indicate that this asset may struggle to achieve expected returns in a competitive rental market. Long-term rental At €375,000, this property exceeds its fair value, which may deter long-term rental investors seeking solid returns in a location that is heavily reliant on tourism. The current gross yield of 3.6% reflects a lack of profitability potential, suggesting that securing reliable long-term tenants may not justify the elevated acquisition cost. Buy-and-hold Investing in this 1-bed apartment at the overpriced listing of €375,000 poses challenges for a buy-and-hold strategy, especially given its fair value of €334,550. The modest gross yield of 3.6% coupled with the elevated purchase price indicates that the long-term appreciation potential may not be sufficient to offset high entry costs in the property market.
Economic Dependency Risk A score of 55 indicates a weak economic stability that may lead to higher vacancy rates and lower rental income; combined with a tenant stability score of 60, this could result in fluctuating cash flows and potential investment losses.
