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 B3 Efficiency: The B3 BER rating suggests that upgrading to a B2 or higher could potentially cost €8,000-€12,000 and increase property value by €15,000-€20,000, while current annual energy costs are estimated at €1,500-€1,900 compared to €2,000-€2,500 for D-rated properties.
Generous Living Space: At 125.0m², the property offers a substantial living area, which is 17.5% larger than the median sale price for similar broad property types within 1km over 180 days (estimated based on €792,707.5 median sale price and €5,200/sqm median price/sqm), indicating good value for space.
Value Optimisation Opportunity: While the property is B3 rated, further insulation and heating system upgrades could enhance its market appeal and potentially yield a value uplift of €15,000-€20,000 upon reaching a B1 or A rating, representing a strong return on investment.
Hypothesis: The B3 BER rating, while good, represents a missed opportunity for significant value enhancement; a targeted €8,000-€12,000 investment in energy efficiency upgrades could position this property to command a price premium of €15,000-€20,000, outperforming the current market by targeting discerning, energy-conscious buyers.
Amenities
Excellent Transport Connectivity: The property is well-served by Dublin Bus routes 42 and 166, providing direct access to Dublin City Centre and surrounding areas, with the Malahide DART station a short 2km drive away.
Prime Educational Hub: Located within proximity to highly-rated schools such as Malahide Community School (1km) and St. Andrew's National School (1.5km), alongside excellent third-level options accessible via public transport.
Abundant Lifestyle Amenities: Residents benefit from proximity to Malahide Village's vibrant dining scene, boutique shops, and the picturesque Malahide Castle & Gardens, offering a high quality of life and leisure.
Hypothesis: The exceptional walkability score (estimated >80 based on proximity to village amenities) and direct access to key transport links like the 42 bus route and Malahide DART station contribute a significant 10-15% premium to property values in this specific micro-location within Malahide, driven by commuter convenience and lifestyle appeal.
