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 SI_666 BER rating is unknown, offering no quantifiable energy performance; upgrading from an 'Unknown' or poor rating to a B2 could cost €8,000-€12,000 and potentially increase property value by €15,000-€20,000.
Details
- Size Efficiency: This 120m² terrace with 5 bedrooms offers a density of 24m² per bedroom, which is on the lower end, potentially indicating a compact living space for its size category.
- Value Optimization Opportunity: Given the property's unknown BER and its classification as a terrace, investing in energy efficiency upgrades could be crucial. Properties with similar size and bed counts in the area with higher BER ratings fetch a premium, suggesting a potential value uplift of €15,000-€20,000 for an upgrade from an 'Unknown' to a B2 rating.
- Hypothesis: The significant discrepancy between the property's estimated value (€380,003) and its asking price (€270,000), combined with an unknown BER, suggests that the market is currently valuing this property based on its 'as-is' condition and immediate comparable sales, rather than its potential post-upgrade value, creating an arbitrage opportunity for an investor.
Amenities
Transport Connectivity: Dundalk is served by major road networks including the M1 motorway, facilitating access to Dublin and Belfast, with frequent bus services operating between the towns.
Details
- Local Facilities: Dundalk boasts a range of amenities including the Marshes Shopping Centre, multiple supermarkets like Tesco and Dunnes Stores, and healthcare facilities such as Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital located in Drogheda, accessible via public transport.
- Educational Hub: The area is home to Dundalk Grammar School, St. Mary's College, and the highly regarded Technological University of the Shannon (TUS) - Athlone Campus, Dundalk IT, providing diverse educational opportunities.
- Hypothesis: The strategic location of Dundalk, with its strong transport links via the M1, a growing university presence, and established retail and healthcare infrastructure, positions Seatown Place to benefit from ongoing urban development and potentially attract a wider pool of buyers seeking more affordable alternatives to the Dublin commuter belt, further driving local property values.
