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
Moderate Energy Efficiency: The C1 BER rating suggests moderate energy efficiency, with potential annual energy cost savings of €800-€1,200 compared to E-rated properties, but significant savings achievable with upgrades.
Details
- Cost-Effective Upgrades: Investing €8,000-€12,000 in insulation and heating upgrades could potentially improve the BER rating to a B2, increasing the property's value by an estimated €15,000-€20,000.
- Efficient Layout: The 72m² size with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms is well-configured for modern apartment living, matching the median bathroom and bedroom count within a 1km radius, maximizing utility for its size.
- Hypothesis: While the C1 BER rating is acceptable, the prevalent lack of BER information (100% unknown) in the wider market data within 1km and 3km over 90/180 days suggests a market where transparent BER ratings are not yet a primary driver of value, potentially creating an opportunity for sellers to gain a premium by improving their BER to A or B ratings.
Amenities
Prime Transport Hub: The property is excellently connected, with the Luas Red Line at the Spencer Dock stop (500m) and numerous Dublin Bus routes including 1, 7, 47, 56a, and 77a within a 500m radius, facilitating swift travel across the city.
Details
- Vibrant Lifestyle Core: Residents have immediate access to numerous cafes and restaurants in the Grand Canal Dock area, along with major employers, and lifestyle amenities like the Bord Gáis Energy Theatre and the Shelbourne Park Greyhound Stadium all within a 1km walk.
- Exceptional Walkability: The area boasts high walkability, with a direct pedestrian link to Merrion Square (1.5km) and the IFSC (1km), offering a car-free commute and easy access to essential services and recreational spaces.
- Hypothesis: The concentration of major tech and finance employers within a 1km radius, evidenced by the high density of apartments (63% within 1km), suggests a continuing upward pressure on rental yields and property values for well-located apartments, particularly those offering direct access to public transport like this one.
