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 Rating Investment Opportunity: With a C3 BER rating, upgrading to a B2 rating would likely cost between €8,000-€12,000 and could potentially increase the property's value by €15,000-€20,000, offering a sound investment.
Space Efficiency: Measuring 87.0m², this 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom semi-detached property offers a reasonable size for a family, with a good bathroom-to-bedroom ratio, potentially appealing to a broad buyer pool.
Value Optimization Potential: While a C3 BER is moderate, focused energy efficiency upgrades could improve comfort and reduce ongoing costs. Considering that comparable properties within 1km have a median sale price of €400,000 for the same type, achieving a better BER could bridge the gap to higher valuations.
Hypothesis: The C3 BER rating suggests the property has some existing insulation and heating efficiency, but significant value could be unlocked by targeting specific improvements such as better window glazing or a more efficient heating system, potentially bringing its energy costs in line with B-rated homes in the area, which would be approximately €400-€1,000 lower annually compared to its current C3 rating.
Amenities

Hypothesis: The ongoing development and potential future expansion of public transport links in North County Dublin, coupled with Balbriggan's status as a key town, suggests that properties like 24 Westbrook Close, which are already connected to existing services, are poised to benefit from increased demand and potential property value appreciation as commuter accessibility further improves.
