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 Upgrade Opportunity: Upgrading the D1 BER rating to a B2 could cost an estimated €8,000-€12,000, potentially increasing the property's value by €15,000-€20,000, given that 100% of properties within 1km have unknown BER.
Details
- Compact Living: At 63m², this apartment is 43.4m² smaller than the average property size of 106.6m² within a 1km radius over the last 180 days.
- Value Optimization: Given the average price difference of €38,725 within 1km over 180 days, focusing on BER improvements and minor cosmetic upgrades could yield a significant return on investment.
- Hypothesis: The prevalence of unknown BER ratings within 1km suggests a market where energy efficiency is not yet a primary valuation driver, presenting a significant opportunity for this property to gain a competitive edge and command a premium post-BER upgrade, potentially closing the value gap with larger homes.
Amenities
Transport Hub: This property is well-connected, with Dublin Bus routes 27, 40, and 123 serving the immediate area, and the Luas Red Line at James's stop approximately 1km away.
Details
- Local Conveniences: Residents have easy access to St. James's Hospital (500m), Lidl (700m), and numerous cafes and restaurants along the Grand Canal, enhancing daily living.
- Walkability Factor: The property's location provides excellent walkability, with Portobello Harbour offering scenic routes and the National Museum of Ireland - Decorative Arts & History just 1.5km away.
- Hypothesis: The D1 BER rating, while currently a disadvantage, is offset by exceptional connectivity and access to essential services; however, future value growth may be significantly accelerated by upcoming infrastructure developments around the Grand Canal area, potentially increasing demand for well-located, energy-efficient apartments.
