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
Efficient Space: At 120m², this 2-bedroom apartment offers a generous 60m² per bedroom, providing ample living space which is attractive for the market.
BER Advantage: With a B2 BER rating, annual energy costs are estimated to be €1,000-€1,400 lower than for comparable D-rated properties of similar size.
Value-Add Opportunity: Improving the B2 BER rating to a B1 or A rating could cost approximately €5,000-€9,000 and potentially increase the property's market value by €10,000-€15,000.
Hypothesis: Given the B2 BER rating, focusing on minor insulation upgrades and potentially upgrading the heating system could push this apartment into the A-rated bracket, significantly enhancing its long-term appeal and resale value in the energy-conscious market.
