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: A C2 BER rating suggests potential for upgrades; improving to a B2 could cost €8,000-€12,000 and potentially add €15,000-€20,000 in value.
Space Utility: At 72m² with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, the property offers a functional layout for couples or small families, fitting the 1km median sale price per sqm of €2,597.
Value Optimization: The current BER of C2 typically results in annual energy costs of approximately €1,500-€1,800, compared to €800-€1,200 for B-rated properties of similar size, presenting an opportunity for cost savings and value enhancement.
Hypothesis: Given the C2 BER, a strategic focus on insulation and heating system upgrades could unlock significant long-term savings and a higher resale value, particularly if surrounding properties are also undergoing similar improvements.
Amenities
Transport Links: While specific routes are not provided, Ennis town centre, served by various Bus Éireann routes, is accessible, offering connectivity to regional and national networks.
Local Services: Ennis town provides essential healthcare access, including Ennis General Hospital, pharmacies, and a variety of shopping options from supermarkets to independent retailers.
Lifestyle Hub: Ennis boasts numerous restaurants, cafes, and parks like the Clare Museum Gardens, offering a vibrant local lifestyle within reasonable proximity.
Hypothesis: The value of this property is significantly enhanced by its proximity to Ennis town's established infrastructure and amenities, suggesting that properties further out but with similar access points would command a higher premium due to this 'urban proximity advantage'.
