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
Significant Upgrade Opportunity: With a BER rating of 'Unknown' (SI_666), significant investment would be required for energy efficiency upgrades; improving from an assumed D-rating (typical for older properties) to a B2 could cost approximately €8,000-€12,000 and potentially increase property value by €15,000-€20,000.
Details
- Spacious Configuration: The property offers 120m² with 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, aligning with the median bed count (4.0) and bath count (2.0) within a 100km radius, providing ample space that meets the needs of larger families.
- Value Optimization Potential: Given the BER uncertainty, investing in energy-efficient upgrades could unlock significant value, potentially improving the property's appeal and marketability against properties with better known energy ratings, with an estimated annual saving of €1,000-€1,400 compared to D-rated homes.
- Hypothesis: The lack of specific BER data suggests that a substantial portion of the value increase for this property may come from proactive energy efficiency investments and transparent reporting, positioning it as a value-add opportunity for a buyer willing to undertake these improvements.
Amenities
Limited Public Transport: There are no specific bus routes, train stations, Luas, or DART stations mentioned as serving Malin directly, indicating reliance on private transport for connectivity.
Details
- Basic Local Amenities: While specific shops, schools, and healthcare facilities are not detailed in the provided data for Malin, the location outside Dublin suggests a potentially more rural setting with limited immediate access to extensive retail, educational, or healthcare services.
- Low Walkability & Pedestrian Access: As an 'Outside Dublin' location without specific walkability data, it's likely that pedestrian access to essential services and amenities will be limited, requiring travel by car for most daily needs.
- Hypothesis: The lack of specific public transport infrastructure and detailed local amenities in the provided data for Malin suggests that the property's value and appeal will be heavily influenced by its proximity to larger towns or regional centres, and future development plans for improved local services or transport links could significantly boost its desirability and value.
