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
Significant BER Upgrade Potential: With a BER rating of F, upgrading to a B2 rating could cost an estimated €8,000-€12,000 and potentially increase the property's value by €15,000-€20,000 based on typical market premiums for energy efficiency.
Details
- Lower Than Local Standard: The property's single bathroom is below the 100km median of 2 bathrooms, which could impact its desirability and resale value compared to properties with more facilities.
- Suboptimal Energy Performance: The F BER rating means this property likely incurs annual energy costs of approximately €2,000-€2,800, considerably higher than the €800-€1,200 estimated for a B-rated property of similar size.
- Hypothesis: The €105m² floor area for this 4-bedroom semi-detached house, while offering ample sleeping accommodation, suggests a potentially inefficient room layout leading to lower than average living space per bedroom, which could be improved by reconfiguring internal spaces to enhance flow and perceived spaciousness, thereby increasing its market appeal.
Amenities
Limited Direct Public Transport: Manorcunningham does not have direct Luas, DART, or national train station access; the nearest significant transport hubs would require onward travel, likely involving local bus services to Letterkenny.
Details
- Local Amenities Access: Residents would typically rely on Letterkenny (approx. 10km drive) for major shopping centres like Letterkenny Shopping Centre, comprehensive healthcare at Letterkenny University Hospital, and a wider range of schools such as Loreto Secondary School and Coláiste Ailigh.
- Rural Connectivity: The property's location in Manorcunningham suggests a reliance on private transport, with limited walkability to extensive amenities and a need for bus services like Bus Éireann routes that may serve the wider Donegal region, requiring onward connections.
- Hypothesis: The current lack of direct public transport and reliance on Letterkenny for key amenities may be a significant barrier for potential buyers prioritizing convenience and a shorter commute to services, but this could change if regional development plans include enhanced bus services or improved road infrastructure connecting Manorcunningham more directly to key employment and retail hubs.
