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 C3 Efficiency: The property has a BER C3 rating, suggesting moderate energy efficiency with potential for improvement to reduce energy costs.
Details
- Space Optimization: With 101m² of space and 3 bedrooms, the property offers a reasonable size, but the single bathroom may be a limitation for larger families or guests, potentially impacting its desirability and value.
- Upgrade Potential: Upgrading from a C3 BER rating to a B2 rating could involve insulation, window, and heating system improvements costing approximately €8,000-€12,000 and could potentially increase the property's value by €15,000-€20,000, representing a positive return on investment.
- Hypothesis: Given the C3 BER rating and the single bathroom, the property's quality is average for its size, but a strategic investment in energy efficiency upgrades and a potential second bathroom could significantly enhance its market appeal and long-term value, especially if local comparable properties offer superior configurations and ratings.
Amenities
Limited Public Transport: There are no specific bus routes, train stations, Luas, or DART stations directly listed as serving Umlagh Cottages, Carrigart, suggesting a reliance on private transport for connectivity.
Details
- Local Services: While specific local amenities are not detailed in the provided data, Carrigart itself is a village with likely access to essential services such as local shops and potentially primary schools.
- Recreational Access: The property's location in Carrigart, Co. Donegal, likely offers access to the natural coastal amenities of the area, such as beaches and scenic walking routes, which are a key draw for the region.
- Hypothesis: The lack of readily available public transport data and the presumed reliance on private vehicles for this property in Carrigart suggests that its value is intrinsically tied to its rural charm and access to natural amenities rather than urban convenience, meaning future infrastructure development or improved public transport links would significantly boost its appeal and valuation.
