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 Value Proposition: The C1 BER rating suggests that upgrading to a B2 rating would likely cost €8,000-€12,000 and could increase the property value by €15,000-€20,000, representing a sound investment for future energy savings and marketability.
Details
- Generous Size: With 131m² and 5 bedrooms, this property is larger than the 3-bedroom median found within 100km (median_beds: 3.0), offering significant space which is attractive in the current market.
- Potential for Value Enhancement: The property's 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms configuration is well-suited for larger families, a demographic often seeking more space, indicating potential for optimized valuation with targeted modernizations.
- Hypothesis: Given the C1 BER rating, a focused upgrade to a B2 or B1 rating through insulation and heating system improvements would not only align with market trends favouring energy efficiency but could unlock an additional 5-7% value uplift compared to its current rating, especially given the strong demand for family homes in this region.
Amenities
Transport Links: While specific bus routes serving Ballygarvan are not detailed in the raw data, its location outside Dublin suggests reliance on local bus services and proximity to Cork City's broader transport network.
Details
- Local Facilities: The area, while semi-rural, is likely served by essential amenities in nearby towns such as Carrigaline or Cork City, including supermarkets like SuperValu and various local schools and healthcare clinics.
- Commuter Potential: The property's location outside major urban centres like Dublin positions it as a potential option for those seeking a balance between rural living and accessibility to employment hubs, though specific commute times and transport options require further investigation.
- Hypothesis: Given Ballygarvan's semi-rural setting, the value of this property will be significantly influenced by the future development of local infrastructure, particularly improved public transport links to Cork City and enhanced amenities within a 5km radius, which could see its valuation increase by 5-10% in the medium term.
