Investment apartments by the sea
A good coastal investment apartment relies on location, management and realistic yield, not advertising promises.
- Location × ops
- Net cash flow
- Conservative model
Compare not only €/sqm — total carry, operator quality and nearby competition.
Location as first filter
Demand must hold across the calendar or offset troughs with peak pricing. Map competing STR, hotels and new supply.
Yield is not just revenue
Fold in cleaning, OTA cuts, PM, capex reserves, utilities, insurance, taxes and vacancy weeks. Monthly net tells the truth.
Management and furnishing
Photo quality and host response drives ratings — budget furnishing capex and a 4–6 year refresh cycle.
Downside scenarios
STR rules, neighbor restrictions or rival towers can crater yield — check planning authority masterplans.
