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: The C1 BER rating suggests an estimated annual energy cost of €1,000-€1,300; upgrading to a B2 rating could reduce this by €400-€600 annually, costing approximately €8,000-€12,000.
Details
- Space Efficiency: At 73m² for a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom apartment, this property aligns closely with the average property size of 74.94m² within a 1km radius over the last 180 days.
- Value Optimization: Given the C1 BER, investing in energy efficiency upgrades could increase the property's appeal and potentially add €5,000-€10,000 in value, offsetting some of the initial improvement costs.
- Hypothesis: The consistent lack of BER information (100% unknown) in the 1km radius market data over the last 180 days suggests a broader market trend where BER ratings are either not disclosed or not a primary selling point, potentially creating an opportunity for properties with improved BERs to achieve a higher premium.
Amenities
Transport Hub Access: The property is well-connected with Dublin Bus routes 123, 40, and 79 serving Saint John's Road West, and is within a 15-minute walk to the Red Line Luas at Heuston Station.
Details
- Urban Conveniences: Residents have proximity to the Chapelizod Road retail park with a Lidl supermarket, and the St. James's Hospital campus offering extensive healthcare facilities.
- Walkability & Green Space: The apartment is a short walk to the Phoenix Park, providing extensive recreational space, and is within 1km of various local cafes and restaurants along Thomas Street.
- Hypothesis: The ongoing development of the Heuston South Quarter area, including planned residential and commercial spaces, combined with its established transport links and proximity to major employment hubs like St. James's Hospital, suggests a strong potential for continued property value growth, particularly for modern apartment developments.
