Short-term vacation rental The property in Guia, Albufeira, benefits from its prime location in the Algarve, which is known for its strong tourism demand. With a gross yield of 2.4%, this investment aligns well with seasonal rental opportunities, although the current pricing reflects a fair valuation rather than a discount. Buy-and-hold Investing in this 1-bed apartment is appealing for a long-term hold, given the region's potential for appreciation driven by ongoing tourism interest. However, with a fair valuation of €480,000 compared to its fair value of €447,462, the investment does not present significant upside at this moment. Family rental This property can serve as a suitable family rental, given its adequate condition rating of 79/100 and a neighborhood rating of 73/100, providing a decent living environment. Nevertheless, the pricing at €480,000 indicates that it is fairly valued, which may limit rental yield potential in a competitive market.
Tenant turnover risk The tenant stability score of 70/100 suggests moderate tenant retention, potentially leading to increased vacancy periods and associated costs.
