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 Efficiency: With a B3 BER rating, this property offers good energy efficiency, estimated to result in annual energy costs of €1,500-€2,000 compared to €2,500-€3,000 for a D-rated property of similar size.
Space Optimization: The property offers 148m² of living space with 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, a configuration that is generally well-matched to family needs and typical for a detached home in many Irish markets.
Value Enhancement Opportunity: Upgrading from a B3 BER to a B1 or A-rated BER could cost approximately €5,000-€8,000 but may increase the property's market value by €10,000-€15,000, offering a good return on investment.
Hypothesis: The B3 BER rating positions the property favorably against older, less efficient stock, and a targeted investment in minor energy upgrades, such as improving insulation or window efficiency, could push its rating to B1 or A2, potentially attracting a premium of 3-5% in a market increasingly sensitive to running costs.
Amenities
Transport Connectivity: Kanturk is served by Bus Éireann routes, with specific local routes connecting to larger towns like Mallow, which has a train station for onward travel to Cork City.
Local Services: The area provides essential amenities including supermarkets like Aldi and SuperValu, a local health centre, and St. Mary's Secondary School and Scoil Mhuire National School, catering to daily needs.
Recreational Access: Residents can enjoy local facilities such as the Kanturk Arts Centre, Kanturk Rugby Club, and the nearby Blackwater Valley for outdoor activities, contributing to a good quality of life.
Hypothesis: While Kanturk offers core amenities, its limited direct public transport links to major urban centres like Cork City, necessitating a change at Mallow, may cap its appeal for certain buyer demographics, suggesting a price ceiling influenced by its connectivity disadvantage compared to properties with direct rail or advanced bus network access.
