Short-term vacation rental The property in Quarteira, while appealing due to its proximity to the Algarve coast, presents a gross yield of only 2%, which is relatively low for short-term rentals. The fair valuation is slightly below the listing price at €1,196,784, making the property a less attractive option for this strategy. Buy-and-hold Given the current listing price of €1,290,000 and the fair value of €1,196,784, the investment appears reasonably positioned but offers limited upside potential, showing only a 7.8% gap from fair value. The rental yield of 2% may not provide adequate cash flow for long-term hold strategies in a competitive market. Family rental This 2-bed apartment is situated in a neighborhood with a score of 73/100, which may attract family tenants; however, the gross yield of 2% indicates potential challenges in cash flow generation. The gap between the listing and fair value suggests the investment aligns with market pricing, yet it may not offer significant growth potential for family rental purposes.
Economic vulnerability The property has an economic stability score of 65/100, indicating a moderate risk of economic instability affecting tenant demand and rental income potential.
