Vacation Home, large 2 story 3/2 in excellent condition in the countryside of Torremendo, 20 minutes from the beach on the west coast of Spain.

With the location and condition of the property it's a really sweet deal at my price - but with the current rent the net cap rate drops below 9%, where I typically shoot for 12-15% in this sort of area.
