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 C2 Energy Rating: This C2 BER rating suggests potential for future upgrades; investing €8,000-€12,000 in insulation and heating system improvements could elevate the rating to B2, potentially increasing the property's value by €15,000-€20,000.
Adequate Size for Family: At 97.0m², this 3-bedroom semi-detached home offers a reasonable living space, aligning with the median 3-bedroom configuration prevalent in markets within 100km.
Value Optimization Opportunity: While the C2 BER is respectable, the €440,000 asking price could be optimized by focusing on energy efficiency upgrades, which are becoming increasingly important to buyers and could justify a higher valuation closer to the 20km radius p75 sale price of €550,000.
Hypothesis: Given the C2 BER, further investment in renewable energy solutions like solar panels, beyond basic insulation, could position this property to command a significant premium in line with properties in the 20km radius's top quartile, as energy efficiency becomes a primary buyer driver.
Amenities
Transport Connectivity: Newbridge benefits from rail links at Newbridge Train Station (approx. 2km), providing direct access to Dublin Heuston, and is served by Dublin Bus routes 120 and 123.
Local Amenities: Residents have access to The Square Shopping Centre in Tallaght (approx. 15km) and numerous local retailers and supermarkets in Newbridge town centre, including Dunnes Stores and Tesco.
Educational Hub: The area is well-served by educational facilities, including St. Conleth's Primary School, Scoil Mhuire, and Crossings Secondary School, all within a 2km radius.
Hypothesis: The establishment of a new park-and-ride facility or enhanced bus services directly connecting Newbridge to a Luas or DART line terminus could significantly boost property values by reducing commuter travel time to Dublin city centre by 15-20%.
