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 Upgrade Opportunity: Upgrading the D1 BER rating to a B2 could cost an estimated €8,000-€12,000 and potentially increase the property's value by €15,000-€20,000, representing a strategic investment.
Energy Cost Comparison: This D1 rated property likely incurs annual energy costs of €1,800-€2,200, compared to €800-€1,200 for similar-sized properties with a B2 rating.
Space Efficiency: At 40m², this 2-bedroom apartment is compact, and optimizing its layout could enhance perceived value and functionality for future buyers.
Hypothesis: Given the D1 BER rating and 40m² size, a strategic focus on enhancing energy efficiency alongside creative interior design could unlock significant value, particularly as the 1km_180d_price_std of €185,135 suggests significant price variations within the immediate vicinity, implying quality improvements can drive a larger valuation uplift.
