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 Improvement Potential: Upgrading the C1 BER rating to a B2 could cost an estimated €10,000-€15,000 and potentially increase the property's value by €20,000-€25,000, offering a tangible return on investment.
Size Efficiency: At 83m², this 3-bedroom apartment provides a comfortable living space, with a price per square meter of €5,952 based on its asking price, which is slightly below the 1km median price per sqm of €6,259.
Value Optimization: While the BER is C1, focusing on minor energy efficiency upgrades such as improved insulation or new windows could cost €3,000-€6,000 and increase its appeal, potentially justifying a 1-2% higher asking price in future transactions.
Hypothesis: Given the C1 BER rating, there's a significant opportunity to enhance value; investing €8,000-€12,000 in targeted insulation and draft-proofing could elevate the BER to a B3, leading to an estimated annual energy saving of €300-€500 compared to its current rating and increasing its marketability by 5-7%.
Amenities
Transport Connectivity: Greystones is served by the DART line at Greystones Station, offering direct access to Dublin city centre, and multiple Dublin Bus routes such as the 184 towards Bray and the 84 towards Dublin.
Local Lifestyle Hub: Residents have convenient access to amenities like the Tesco supermarket, local boutiques in Greystones village, and numerous cafes and restaurants such as The Hungry Monk and Lily O'Brien's Chocolate Shop.
Family & Wellness Focus: The area boasts excellent educational facilities including St. Patrick's Primary School and Greystones Community College, alongside amenities like the Greystones Rugby Club, Shoreline Leisure Centre, and various parks including Charlesland Park.
Hypothesis: The strong appeal of Greystones, evidenced by its DART connectivity and proximity to numerous family-oriented amenities, creates a significant desirability premium; this is likely contributing to the higher price per square meter within a 1km radius (€6,259) compared to the broader 3km radius (€5,670), a trend that is expected to persist due to ongoing infrastructure improvements and town planning initiatives.
