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 Opportunity: Upgrading the E1 BER rating to a B2 could cost an estimated €10,000-€15,000 and potentially increase the property's value by €20,000-€25,000, representing a profitable investment.
Space Efficiency Analysis: At 104m², the property offers a generous living space for its 5 bedrooms, providing an average of 20.8m² per bedroom, which is competitive for family homes.
Value Optimization Potential: Given the E1 BER rating, significant value optimization can be achieved by implementing energy efficiency upgrades, reducing annual energy costs from an estimated €1,800-€2,200 to €800-€1,200 for a comparable B-rated property.
Hypothesis: The significant gap between the current E1 BER rating and the higher BER ratings (like A or B) seen in newer or renovated properties within a 1km radius indicates a substantial opportunity for value uplift through targeted energy efficiency retrofits, potentially closing the price gap with the 1km_180d_median_sale_price_same_broad_type of €220,000.
Amenities
Transport Connectivity: While specific bus routes and train station names are not provided in the data, its location in Waterford City Centre suggests access to local bus services connecting to key areas.
Local Facilities Access: Being in Waterford City Centre implies proximity to amenities such as Waterford Crystal Visitor Centre, Reginald's Tower, and various retail outlets on George's Street and Broad Street.
Walkability & Services: The city centre location inherently offers high walkability, with shops, restaurants like Bodega Food Market, and services such as University Hospital Waterford approximately 3km away.
Hypothesis: The central city location of 36 Manor Street, Waterford, implies a strong potential for rental demand from professionals and students attending the nearby SETU (South East Technological University), especially if current rental yields in the immediate area can achieve a 5-7% return, which is typical for well-located urban rental properties.
