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 Energy Performance: The C3 BER rating suggests moderate energy efficiency; upgrading to a B2 rating would likely cost between €8,000 and €12,000, potentially increasing property value by €15,000-€20,000.
Ample Living Space: With 140m² and 4 bedrooms, this semi-detached home offers more space than the typical 1km median sale price of €697,500 properties, suggesting good value per square meter at the asking price.
Value Optimization Opportunity: The €8,000-€12,000 investment to improve the BER from C3 to B2 could yield a return of €15,000-€20,000 in enhanced property value and reduced running costs.
Hypothesis: The C3 BER rating, while not poor, presents a tangible opportunity for value uplift; focusing on a targeted BER improvement could significantly enhance the property's market appeal and long-term energy cost savings, especially when compared to A or B rated properties in the vicinity.
Amenities
Transport Links: The property is well-served by Dublin Bus routes 175 and 44, providing direct access to Dublin city center and surrounding areas, with stops less than 500m away.
Local Conveniences: Residents have easy access to the shops and services at Rathfarnham Shopping Centre (1.5km) and a variety of cafes and restaurants in the village centre (1.2km).
Green Space Access: Located within a 1km radius of Marlay Park and St. Enda's Park, offering extensive recreational facilities and walking trails for residents.
Hypothesis: The proximity to Marlay Park and the well-established Rathfarnham village amenities, combined with direct bus routes like the 175, creates a strong lifestyle appeal that historically commands a price premium within this specific Dublin 16 pocket, justifying higher local asking prices.
