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 Impact
The D1 BER rating suggests that upgrading to a B2 rating could cost approximately €8,000-€12,000, potentially increasing the property's value by €15,000-€20,000 and reducing annual energy costs from an estimated €1,800-€2,200 to €800-€1,200.
Size vs Local Norms
At 120m², this 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom house is of a standard size for family homes in many Irish markets, but its value per square meter needs to be considered against local comparables.
Value Optimization Opportunity
The property's current value per square meter, based on its asking price (€167,000 / 120m² = €1,392/m²), presents an opportunity for value optimization through targeted energy efficiency upgrades.
Hypothesis: BER investment ROI
Hypothesis: Investing in upgrading the D1 BER rating to at least a C rating would likely yield a return on investment exceeding 150% within three years, considering both potential value increase and energy savings based on typical market trends for energy-efficient homes.
Amenities
Transport Connectivity
While specific routes serving Moville are not detailed, its location outside Dublin means reliance on local and regional bus services, with no DART or Luas stations available locally.
Local Lifestyle Options
Moville offers local amenities such as shops, cafes, and potentially parks, but access to larger retail centers or specialized healthcare would require travel.
Family and Childcare
The area likely has local primary schools and limited childcare facilities, common for towns outside major urban hubs.
Hypothesis: Rural isolation premium
Hypothesis: The property's value may be influenced by a 'rural isolation premium' or 'lifestyle premium' for those seeking quieter living, which could offset the lack of immediate urban amenities and transport links if marketed correctly.
