Below-average quality, screening 32% undervalued on our models.

What matters now

  • The large discount to fair value meets weak quality (35/100). That raises the risk this is a value trap rather than a bargain.
  • The price is below even our cautious bear case ($20.38). The market is more pessimistic than our downside scenario.
  • As a real-estate business, asset- and dividend-based methods carry more weight here than a standard DCF.

Analysis

Safehold Inc (SAFE) currently trades at $16.29, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $21.47, implying the stock looks roughly 31.8% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 35/100 (below-average quality), in the Real Estate sector. Bull case: trading below our estimate, it may offer upside if the fundamentals hold. Bear case: a low price can be a value trap when quality is weak or the data is thin (evidence: high), always confirm before acting.

Over the trailing twelve months, Safehold Inc generated revenue of $417M at a net margin of 27.4%. Revenue grew 11.9% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 4.7%. Net debt stands at $4.5B. Fundamentals as of Jul 27, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $20.38 (bear case) to $33.97 (bull case); at $16.29, the current price sits below that range. Bear and bull are the same models run on conservative and optimistic assumptions (margins, growth, valuation multiples), so a plausible valuation range, not a price target. The share trades about 1% below its 52-week high and 31% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Real Estate peers we cover trades at -22% fair-value upside, at 32%, SAFE screens cheaper than that median.

Fair Value models

Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted blend. Evidence (0–100) measures how completely this model’s inputs are available: well-fed models carry more weight in the blend. The spread across models is intentional, each one stresses a different value driver; dividend models, for instance, come out structurally low when payout is small.
