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
Energy Efficiency & Savings: With a C2 BER rating, this property offers moderate energy efficiency. While specific savings vary, properties with a C2 rating typically incur annual energy costs estimated between €1,500-€1,900, which is approximately €300-€700 less than a comparable D-rated property of this size (€1,800-€2,200).
Details
- Generous Living Space: At 118m² with 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, this semi-detached home offers significantly more space and bedrooms compared to the local 1km area's average property size of 95m² with 3 median bedrooms, providing ample room for a growing family.
- Value Enhancement Potential: While already at a respectable C2 BER, strategic upgrades to achieve a B-rating (e.g., B2) through measures such as improved insulation or a heat pump could cost an estimated €6,000-€10,000 but could potentially add €10,000-€15,000 to the property's value, along with further reducing running costs.
- Hypothesis: The property's larger size and higher bedroom count relative to local averages position it as a desirable family home, likely to retain strong demand and appreciate in value as families continue to seek spacious living options within commuting distance of Dublin.
Amenities
Commuter Accessibility: Located in Swords, the property benefits from direct access to extensive Dublin Bus services, providing crucial connectivity to Dublin City Centre and surrounding areas, enhancing convenience for daily commuters. It is also in close proximity to Dublin Airport, a key national and international transport hub.
Details
- Family-Friendly Environment: The Swords area offers a wealth of established educational institutions, including numerous primary and secondary schools, along with a comprehensive range of shopping, dining, and leisure facilities (e.g., Swords Pavilions Shopping Centre), making it a highly attractive and convenient location for families.
- Community & Recreation: Residents benefit from access to local parks and green spaces such as Swords Town Park for recreation and outdoor activities, alongside essential healthcare services and community facilities, contributing to a high quality of life within the vibrant Swords community.
- Hypothesis: Future infrastructure projects, such as the proposed MetroLink expansion to Swords, would significantly enhance the area's connectivity to Dublin City and beyond, further boosting its appeal and property values for commuters and local residents alike.
