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
B3 BER Advantage: A B3 BER rating suggests that annual energy costs for this 92m² property are likely between €1,200-€1,600, offering savings of approximately €400-€800 annually compared to a D-rated property of similar size.
Size Efficiency: With 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms within 92m², this property offers a space efficiency of 30.7m² per bedroom, which is well-configured for modern family living.
Value Optimization Potential: While a B3 rating is good, upgrading to a B2 or B1 could cost an estimated €4,000-€7,000 and potentially increase the property's value by €8,000-€12,000, enhancing its market appeal and long-term energy performance.
Hypothesis: The presence of 3 bathrooms for a 3-bedroom property, particularly in a location that historically favoured larger family homes, suggests a design prioritising convenience over spacious living areas, which could be a differentiating factor in a competitive market where buyers might seek more expansive reception rooms.
Amenities
Transport Connectivity: This area is served by Dublin Bus routes 45A, 63, 184, and is approximately 2.5km from the Bray DART station, providing key commuter links.
Local Educational Hub: Residents have access to St. Gerard's School (within 1km) and Loreto Secondary School, Bray (within 2km), offering strong educational options for families.
Retail and Green Space Access: Proximity to Bray Retail Park (within 2km) for shopping, and Kilruddery Estate & Gardens (within 1km) for leisure activities, enhances the quality of life.
Hypothesis: The combination of established transport links via Dublin Bus routes and the DART, coupled with the presence of high-performing secondary schools within a 2km radius, positions this area as a strong contender for families seeking both commuter convenience and quality education, potentially driving consistent demand despite wider market fluctuations.
