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
Moderate Energy Efficiency: The C1 BER rating suggests average to good energy performance, likely resulting in annual energy costs of approximately €1,400-€1,800, compared to €2,000-€2,500 for G-rated properties of similar size.
Space Efficiency: At 120m², the property offers a good amount of living space for its type, with 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, fitting comfortably within the typical needs of a family.
Potential Value Upgrade: While the C1 BER is decent, strategic upgrades to achieve a B rating could cost approximately €7,000-€10,000 and potentially increase the property's value by €10,000-€15,000, based on typical energy efficiency premiums.
Hypothesis: Given the C1 BER, properties with a similar size and configuration in this area that achieve B-ratings are likely achieving a price premium of 3-5% over comparable C-rated properties, indicating a clear opportunity for value enhancement through energy upgrades.
Amenities
Limited Public Transport: Direct public transport options for Skibbereen are not detailed in the provided metrics, suggesting potential reliance on private transport and limited bus route connectivity.
Local Services Access: Skibbereen offers essential amenities including supermarkets like SuperValu, a range of local shops, and healthcare facilities such as Skibbereen Medical Centre and University Hospital Kerry (approx. 45km away), providing good day-to-day convenience.
Walkable Environment: The property's location within Skibbereen likely offers good walkability to local shops, cafes like The Edge and restaurants such as No. 1 Bistro, with pedestrian access to the River Ilen walkway.
Hypothesis: The continued development and promotion of Skibbereen as a tourist and residential hub, coupled with potential future investment in public transport links from Cork City, could significantly enhance property values in this area over the next 5 years.
