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 Upgrade Opportunity: Upgrading the C1 BER rating to a B2 would cost an estimated €8,000-€12,000 and could increase the property's value by €15,000-€20,000, offering a strong return on investment.
Details
- Energy Cost Advantage: The C1 BER rating indicates annual energy costs of approximately €1,500-€1,800, which are €300-€600 lower than comparable D-rated properties of similar size.
- Compact Living Efficiency: At 79.0m², this 2-bedroom detached property offers a relatively efficient layout, with a 3-bathroom configuration providing enhanced convenience for its size.
- Hypothesis: While a C1 BER is decent, targeted insulation upgrades and a new boiler could elevate this property to a B-rating, potentially adding €25,000 to its value and making it a highly attractive proposition for energy-conscious buyers in the Drogheda market.
Amenities
Transport Links: This property is well-served by Dublin Bus routes 100X (to Dublin City Centre) and 163 (to Drogheda Town Centre), with Drogheda train station located approximately 3km away offering regular commuter services.
Details
- Local Education & Healthcare: Proximity to Scoil Naomh Lorcain (primary school, 1.5km) and Drogheda General Hospital (2km) ensures convenient access to essential family services.
- Retail & Leisure Access: Residents are within a 2km radius of the Scotch Hall Shopping Centre, featuring multiple retailers and supermarkets like Tesco, along with local cafes and restaurants in Drogheda town center.
- Hypothesis: The ongoing infrastructure development plans for the M1 corridor, including potential upgrades to public transport links and town center regeneration, are likely to increase the desirability of Aston Village, potentially driving property values up by 7-10% over the next three years.
