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 D1 BER rating to a B2 would likely cost between €8,000-€12,000 and could potentially increase the property's value by €15,000-€20,000, representing a positive return on investment.
Details
- Space Efficiency: At 80.0m², this semi-detached property is 20m² larger than the average property size of 60m² sold within a 1km radius over the last 180 days, offering better space utility for the area.
- Configuration vs. Area Norms: While the immediate 1km radius has a median of 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, this property matches this configuration, aligning well with local buyer preferences for 3-bed, 2-bath semi-detached homes.
- Hypothesis: The D1 BER rating on this 80m² property, with an estimated current annual energy cost of €1,800-€2,200, presents a clear opportunity. Investing approximately €8,000-€12,000 in insulation and heating upgrades to reach a B2 rating could not only recoup the cost through increased market value but also reduce annual running costs by an estimated €1,000-€1,400, making it a more attractive proposition against the 100% BER unknown properties in the 1km radius market.
Amenities
Transport Connectivity: Rathcoole is served by Dublin Bus routes 69, 75, and S4, with the Red Line Luas at Tallaght and Belgard accessible via these routes, facilitating commuter access to Dublin city centre.
Details
- Local Education Hub: The area is well-serviced by educational facilities including Rathcoole Educate Together National School, Holy Family National School, and St. Mary's College, catering to primary and secondary education needs.
- Retail and Services: Residents have convenient access to local shopping at Rathcoole Shopping Centre, featuring a Tesco supermarket, along with numerous local pharmacies and healthcare clinics in the vicinity.
- Hypothesis: While Rathcoole offers established amenities like the S4 bus route connecting to the Red Line Luas, its relative distance from central Dublin infrastructure (no direct Luas or DART stop within immediate walking distance) means that properties here will continue to trade at a discount compared to areas with direct city centre rapid transit links, despite strong local demand and amenity provision, suggesting a persistent €50,000-€75,000 value gap for comparable homes with direct Luas Red Line access.
