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 Efficiency Advantage: This property's C2 BER rating offers an estimated annual energy cost of €1,200-€1,600, potentially saving buyers €600-€1,000 annually compared to typical D-rated properties of similar size.
Details
- Compact and Efficient Layout: At 84m², this 2-bedroom detached property offers an efficient layout providing ample space for its configuration, while the local median of 3-bedroom properties suggests it caters to a specific, potentially smaller, household market segment.
- Upgrade Potential: While already a solid C2 BER, investing €4,000-€8,000 to upgrade to a B-rated property could further enhance energy efficiency and potentially increase the property's value by €8,000-€12,000, offering a strong return on investment.
- Hypothesis: The property's relatively high BER for a rural detached home, combined with its compact size, positions it as an ideal low-maintenance option for first-time buyers or downsizers, potentially commanding a premium from those prioritising energy efficiency over larger square footage in a rural setting.
Amenities
Regional Connectivity: The property benefits from Bus Éireann route 30, providing services to Dublin and Donegal, and route 175 for local travel to Cavan town, enhancing regional transport options for residents.
Details
- Local Essentials and Recreation: Within Belturbet, residents have access to SuperValu for daily needs, Belturbet National School and St. Bricin's College for education, and local medical services including Brady's Pharmacy, with green space provided by Belturbet Town Park.
- Walkability and Local Access: While situated in Cornadarragh, a short drive or moderate walk connects residents to Belturbet town centre, offering access to local shops, eateries like The Seven Horseshoes, and essential services, ensuring convenience without being directly in the hustle of the town.
- Hypothesis: As remote working becomes more prevalent, Belturbet's serene environment combined with essential local amenities and regional bus connectivity could increasingly attract buyers seeking a balanced lifestyle, driving demand for properties like this away from urban centres.
