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
Energy Cost Advantage: With a C1 BER rating, this 79m² property offers notable energy efficiency, resulting in estimated annual energy costs of €1,200-€1,600, which is approximately €600-€1,000 lower than comparable D-rated properties of similar size in the area.
Details
- Optimal Configuration: The property's 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom align perfectly with the median bedroom and bathroom count for properties sold within a 5km radius over the past 180 days, indicating a popular and functional layout for the local market.
- Value-Add Opportunity: While the property has 1 bathroom, the median in the broader 10km and 20km radius is 2 bathrooms; adding a second bathroom could potentially enhance market appeal and increase property value by €10,000-€15,000, aligning it with wider buyer preferences.
- Hypothesis: While the property's 1-bathroom configuration aligns with the immediate 5km median, the broader 10km and 20km market's median of 2 bathrooms suggests a clear opportunity for a strategic second bathroom addition, which could unlock a premium of €10,000-€15,000 by meeting evolving buyer preferences and boosting competitive appeal.
