Short-term vacation rental This property, despite being listed at €850,000, shows a 14.8% gap to its fair value of €997,475, which indicates a potential for healthy returns in the short-term rental market. However, the location’s inland position may limit tourist appeal and accessibility, reducing average occupancy rates. Buy-and-hold The villa's fair value of €997,475 against its listing price suggests a strong long-term investment opportunity, particularly as the property has room for appreciation. While the 0% gross yield indicates current cash flow challenges, the upward trajectory in value hints at future gain. Family rental With a fair value significantly higher than the listing price, this property could offer a solid investment for family rentals, provided tenant stability is managed effectively. However, the neighbourhood’s amenities and scores show a need for caution regarding tenant quality and long-term demand for family housing.
Tenant turnover risk: With a tenant stability score of 55/100, there is a significant risk of increased turnover, potentially leading to higher vacancy rates and costs associated with finding new tenants.
