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 Potential: Upgrading this D1 BER rated property to a B2 rating could cost an estimated €8,000-€12,000 and potentially increase its value by €15,000-€20,000, presenting a clear investment opportunity.
Energy Cost Savings: The current D1 BER rating likely results in annual energy costs of €1,800-€2,200, compared to €800-€1,200 for a property with a B-rated BER of similar size, indicating potential annual savings of €1,000-€1,400.
Space Efficiency: With 97m² and 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, this property offers a good balance of living space and number of rooms for its size, fitting the typical configuration for a family home.
Hypothesis: Given the D1 BER rating and the general demographic in Co. Cavan favouring family homes, the primary value optimization for this property lies not just in essential BER upgrades, but in targeted cosmetic and functional enhancements that align with modern family living expectations, as highlighted by the 200 properties within 1km potentially setting a benchmark for condition and finish.
Amenities
Transport Connectivity: While specific routes are not provided, Bailieborough is served by local bus services, and proximity to larger towns would be key for broader connectivity to national routes.
Local Services: Bailieborough offers essential amenities including local supermarkets, primary and secondary schools, and healthcare facilities, contributing to its self-sufficiency.
Walkability: The town centre of Bailieborough is generally walkable, providing convenient access to shops, services, and local parks for residents.
Hypothesis: The town's designation as a 'Garda Síochána Síochána' (peace officer) point for rural areas suggests a focus on community safety and support, which, when combined with its existing amenity provision, could make it an increasingly attractive option for families seeking a balance between rural living and access to essential services, potentially driving future demand and value.
