Long-term rental The property presents a 4.1% gross yield, indicative of a reasonable return but not particularly compelling given the fair value gap of only 0.3%. With the condition and neighbourhood ratings both at 66/100, potential renters may seek better options in more desirable areas. Family rental While the apartment is spacious at 136m², the local amenities and tenant quality ratings of 66/100 suggest it may not fully meet the expectations of families looking for optimal living conditions. The property's yield of 4.1% does not provide enough incentive for families when considering alternative properties. Buy-and-hold As the property is priced at €265,000, which aligns closely with its fair value, potential appreciation may be limited given the current market conditions. The modest 4.1% gross yield further underscores that this investment may not yield significant long-term returns despite the property's adequate size and location.
Economic Vulnerability With an economic stability score of 70/100 and a tenant stability score of 70/100, the property may be at risk of fluctuations in rental income due to potential economic downturns impacting tenant retention and affordability.
