Long-term rental The property is overpriced by 24.5% compared to its fair value, leading to concerns about securing a favorable return for long-term rental strategies. With a gross yield of only 3.9%, the investment may struggle to attract high-quality tenants in a mixed-use area. Buy-and-hold Given its 24.5% gap from fair value, purchasing this apartment as a buy-and-hold investment may not provide the intended capital appreciation over time. The combination of moderate condition and neighborhood ratings suggests that the property might lag behind in value growth potential. Family rental With the valuation showing the property is overpriced at €345,000, it may not appeal to families seeking affordable yet quality housing. The neighborhood score of 73/100 indicates that while amenities exist, they might not justify the current asking price, making it a less attractive option for family rentals.
Tenant turnover risk A Tenant stability score of 70/100 indicates potential volatility in tenant retention, which may lead to increased vacancy rates and loss of rental income.
