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 Opportunity: The C3 BER rating offers potential for value enhancement through targeted upgrades; investing €8,000-€12,000 to reach a B2 rating could increase property value by €15,000-€20,000, while current annual energy costs are estimated at €1,800-€2,200, compared to €800-€1,200 for B-rated homes of similar size.
Details
- Generous Size for Area: With 178.0m² of living space, this detached 5-bedroom property is larger than the median 3-bedroom properties typical in the broader 100km market (median beds: 3.0), offering significant internal space.
- Configuration Mismatch: While boasting 4 bathrooms, the 5-bedroom configuration is above the median for the 100km market (median beds: 3.0), potentially indicating a slightly over-specced bathroom count for the typical buyer profile in the wider region.
- Hypothesis: The C3 BER rating, while not prohibitive, indicates a missed opportunity for significant cost savings and value uplift; a strategic focus on insulation and heating upgrades could position this property to command a 10-15% premium over similarly sized, lower-rated homes in the Limerick area.
Amenities
Transport Hub Proximity: Dooradoyle benefits from access to Bus Eireann routes serving Limerick City and surrounding areas, with key routes like the 301 connecting to the city centre and the 315 to University Hospital Limerick.
Details
- Educational Cluster: The area is well-served by educational facilities, including St. Nessan's National School (approx. 1km) and Limerick City Vocational School (approx. 2km), alongside the University of Limerick (approx. 5km) for higher education.
- Local Convenience Hub: Nearby amenities include the Crescent Shopping Centre (approx. 1.5km) offering a wide range of retail outlets and supermarkets, alongside local pharmacies and GP clinics within a 2km radius.
- Hypothesis: The strategic location of Dooradoyle, bridging residential quietude with strong connectivity to Limerick City's employment and educational hubs via Bus Eireann route 301, positions it for continued desirability, potentially driving property values by an additional 5% in the next 12 months due to ongoing infrastructure improvements.
