Student housing The apartment's proximity to Coimbra offers a steady demand for student housing, but with a fair valuation compared to its listing price, potential returns may not be as high as desired. The neighborhood's amenities and low crime rate provide a safe environment for tenants, aligning with typical student needs. Long-term rental With a gross yield of 3%, this property maintains a fair position in terms of long-term rental strategy, though it may not yield significant profits. Despite a decent condition rating, the neighborhood's overall quality could limit rental rate increases over time. Buy-and-hold As a buy-and-hold investment, this property could provide stability given its fair value, but appreciation might be modest due to the existing market dynamics. The low neighborhood score may hinder significant value growth, necessitating a patient investment strategy.
Tenant turnover risk With both economic stability and tenant stability scores at 60/100, there is a significant risk of tenant turnover, which can lead to increased vacancy rates and lower rental income.
