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 C1 BER rating to a B2 would likely cost €7,000-€10,000 and could increase the property's value by €10,000-€15,000.
Energy Cost Savings: With a C1 BER rating, annual energy costs are estimated to be €1,100-€1,500, compared to €700-€1,000 for similar-sized B-rated properties, representing potential annual savings of €400-€500.
Space Efficiency: At 154.0m², this 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom detached house offers a reasonable size, with a price per square metre of approximately €3,214 based on the asking price, which is slightly below the 1km radius median of €3,234.
Hypothesis: Given the limited number of similar property sales within 1km, the property's C1 BER rating might be less of a deterrent than in a more competitive market, but a strategic investment in improving to a B-rating could yield a higher return on investment in a future sale by appealing to a wider buyer pool prioritising energy efficiency.
Amenities
Transport Connectivity Limited: While located outside Dublin, the nearest direct public transport links to Dublin are not immediately apparent within the provided data, suggesting reliance on private transport for commuting.
Local Amenities Basic: The area likely offers essential local services, but specific high-demand amenities like major shopping centers or specialized healthcare facilities may require travel to larger towns or Dublin.
Commuter Dependence: Being 'Outside Dublin' with no specific transport routes mentioned suggests a strong reliance on private vehicles for access to employment and amenities, which is a key consideration for potential buyers.
Hypothesis: The positioning 'Outside Dublin' with no specified transport routes to the city suggests that the property's value is more tied to the Duleek local community and surrounding Meath towns, and future value appreciation will be significantly influenced by any local infrastructure developments or improved transport links to employment hubs.
