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 Efficient Home: With a C2 BER rating, this 95m² property boasts good energy efficiency, translating to estimated annual energy costs of €1,400-€1,800, a notable saving compared to the €2,500-€3,000 typically seen for an E-rated property of similar size.
Details
- Optimal Configuration: The 95m² semi-detached layout, featuring 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, aligns perfectly with the prevailing market demand in the 5km radius, where the median property sold also has 3 beds and 2 baths, making it highly desirable for families.
- Above Market Standard: The C2 BER positions this home favourably against older properties in the area, offering enhanced comfort and lower running costs, a valuable asset in a market that has seen properties selling above asking by an average of €49,500 within 5km over the last 30 days.
- Hypothesis: Given the strong market emphasis on energy performance, a strategic upgrade from the current C2 BER to a B-rating could cost an estimated €3,000-€6,000, but would likely increase the property's market value by €8,000-€12,000, enhancing its competitive edge and long-term investment appeal in Castletroy.
Amenities
Education Hub: The property benefits from exceptional access to key educational institutions, including the University of Limerick and Castletroy College, both within a 3km radius, making it highly attractive for families and those affiliated with academia.
Details
- Excellent Connectivity: Commuters will appreciate the convenient access to Limerick City Centre via numerous local bus routes, such as the 304 and 304A, providing efficient public transport options from Castletroy.
- Convenient Daily Living: Residents have easy access to essential amenities including Castletroy Shopping Centre, which houses a Dunnes Stores and various local shops, along with several pharmacies and healthcare clinics, all located within a 3km radius for everyday needs.
- Hypothesis: The high concentration of specific, high-value amenities, particularly the University of Limerick, within the Castletroy area, creates a unique, insulated micro-market where demand for well-located family homes remains consistently strong, contributing significantly to above-average price growth rates compared to the wider Limerick region.
