How this is calculated
We search the Property Price Register for closed sales near this property — matching by location, beds, property type, and where available, floor area (±20%). This gives us a set of genuinely comparable transactions.
Each sale is then time-adjusted to today using local price trends, so a sale from 18 months ago is inflated (or deflated) to reflect current market conditions. Where floor area is known, sales are also size-adjusted — a 90m² sale is normalised to what it would have sold for at this property's size. This means the figures you see aren't raw prices — they're what those same homes would likely sell for today, at this size.
Your bid strategy (opening offer, sealed bid range, walk-away ceiling) is then derived from the statistical distribution of these adjusted sales — with conservative safety margins applied when data is thin or dated.
Every figure comes from actual government-recorded sale prices. No asking prices, no agent estimates, no automated valuations.

Methodology
Closed sales time-adjusted to current market · size-weighted where floor area available · no asking prices or agent estimates used.
How adjustments work
- —Older sales inflated to current market level so stale data doesn't skew bands
- —Similar-sized properties weighted more heavily where floor area is known
- —Local price trends factored in when sufficient data exists; no artificial uplift otherwise
- —All figures from registered closed sales only — no asking prices, no agent estimates
Local Market Notes
Property Quality
BER Rating Advantage: The B3 BER rating offers a competitive advantage, suggesting lower annual energy costs compared to the 100km average where BER is unknown for 100% of properties.
Details
- Size Efficiency: At 137m², this 4-bedroom semi-detached property is of a good size for family living, aligning with the median 3-bedroom configuration in the wider market but offering more space.
- Value Optimization Potential: While the B3 BER is decent, upgrading to a B2 or A rating could cost approximately €5,000-€10,000 and potentially increase property value by €10,000-€15,000, especially as closer market data (10km radius) shows a median of 1 bath and 2.5 beds for a lower sale price.
- Hypothesis: The B3 BER rating, while good, may not fully capture the potential for a further €5,000-€8,000 increase in value through targeted insulation and heating system upgrades, especially considering the 10km radius median sale price of €178,750 for properties with fewer bedrooms and bathrooms, indicating a significant premium for quality and space in this specific location.
Amenities
Transport Connectivity Gaps: The property is located outside Dublin, and the provided data does not specify any direct bus routes, train stations (like Ballymote train station), Luas, or DART services within a relevant radius, indicating potential reliance on private transport.
Details
- Limited Local Facilities: Specific schools, hospitals, shops, or restaurants directly serving Gurteen are not listed in the data, suggesting a need for travel to Ballymote or Sligo town for most amenities.
- Walkability Concerns: The absence of specific local walking routes or pedestrian infrastructure details in the provided data implies that walkability to essential services like shops or schools might be limited.
- Hypothesis: The lack of direct public transport links and specific local amenities suggests that property value in Gurteen is more heavily influenced by its rural charm and proximity to larger hubs like Ballymote or Sligo, rather than by hyper-local services, meaning any future infrastructure investment in direct transport or local facilities could significantly boost its appeal and value.
