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 C2 Advantage: The C2 BER rating offers reasonable energy efficiency, with estimated annual energy costs likely falling between €1,500-€1,900, compared to €2,500-€3,000 for a G-rated property of similar size.
Ample Living Space: At 100m², this apartment offers generous living space, exceeding the typical size for many apartments and providing good value for its category.
Upgrade Opportunity: While currently C2, upgrading the BER to a B2 standard through insulation and heating upgrades, costing an estimated €8,000-€12,000, could potentially increase the property's value by €15,000-€20,000.
Hypothesis: Given the C2 BER rating, future buyers may seek properties with enhanced energy efficiency, suggesting that targeted retrofitting could yield a significant return on investment beyond just energy savings, making it a strategic value-add.
Amenities
Commuter Connectivity: The property is well-served by transport links including bus routes 240 and 241, connecting to Cork City and the nearby Carrigtwohill train station, offering convenient commutes.
Local Essentials: Residents have access to essential amenities including SuperValu Carrigtwohill for groceries, St. Mary's National School for education, and Carrigtwohill Health Centre for healthcare within a short distance.
Active Lifestyle Options: The area offers recreational opportunities with Fota Wildlife Park approximately 5km away, and local parks and walking trails providing green spaces for residents.
Hypothesis: The planned expansion of the Cork Metropolitan Area’s public transport network, including potential enhancements to the Cork-Midleton rail line which passes through Carrigtwohill, will significantly boost the property's long-term desirability and value due to improved connectivity.
