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 B3 BER rating could offer a tangible return; for example, moving to a B2 would likely cost €3,000-€5,000 and could increase the property's market value by €8,000-€10,000, and reduce annual energy costs by an estimated €200-€300 compared to its current rating.
Details
- Space Efficiency: With 100.0m² and 3 bedrooms, this property offers a good size for its type in the area, as the average property size within a 1km radius over 180 days was 90.8m²; however, its 1 bathroom configuration is slightly below the median of 1.0 in the 1km radius, which indicates potential for an additional bathroom to add significant value.
- Value Optimization Opportunity: While the property has a B3 BER rating, 100% of properties in the last 180 days within a 1km radius had unknown BER ratings, indicating this property's rating is a positive differentiator; further optimizing its BER to a B2 could potentially increase its value by €8,000-€10,000.
- Hypothesis: The current B3 BER rating, while superior to the unknown ratings of most comparable properties, represents an opportunity for value enhancement; investing in further insulation and efficient heating systems to achieve a B2 or B1 rating could increase its appeal to energy-conscious buyers and potentially add 2-3% to its resale value within two years.
Amenities
Excellent Connectivity: The property is well-served by Dublin Bus routes 1, 7, and 13, providing direct access to Dublin city center and beyond, complementing the nearby Drumcondra train station for commuter convenience.
Details
- Educational Hub: Within close proximity are renowned educational institutions such as St. Patrick's College, Drumcondra (part of DCU) and Maryfield College Secondary School, making it attractive for families and academics.
- Vibrant Local Lifestyle: Residents benefit from a wide array of amenities including independent shops on Clonliffe Road, supermarkets like Lidl and Tesco within a 2km radius, and numerous cafes and restaurants such as The Skillet and Andersons Food Emporium, all within a short walk.
- Hypothesis: The strong presence of educational facilities and excellent public transport links in Drumcondra, coupled with the ongoing regeneration projects in Dublin 9, will likely drive a sustained increase in property values, particularly for family homes, by an average of 5-6% annually over the next five years due to enhanced desirability and infrastructure.
