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
Energy Efficiency: With a C1 BER rating, this apartment offers moderate energy efficiency; estimated annual energy costs are approximately €1,500-€1,900, compared to €2,200-€2,700 for a G-rated property of similar size.
Size and Space: The 56m² apartment offers a practical layout with 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, which is a standard configuration for this type of dwelling.
Value Optimization Potential: While a C1 BER is decent, upgrading to a B2 rating could cost €8,000-€12,000 and potentially add €15,000-€20,000 to the property's value, making it a sound investment for future resale.
Hypothesis: The C1 BER rating suggests a property built to reasonable modern standards; however, the surrounding market might be trending towards higher energy efficiency, making proactive upgrades a key differentiator for long-term value retention and market appeal.
Amenities
Transport Connectivity: While specific routes for Castlemartyr are not provided, properties outside Dublin often rely on local bus services; the nearest potential hub for wider connectivity would likely require travel to a larger town like Midleton for bus routes and train services.
Local Facilities: Castlemartyr offers essential amenities including local shops and potentially a primary school; specific details for healthcare and broader retail would require further investigation of the immediate village.
Walkability and Access: While specific walking routes are not detailed, village centres like Castlemartyr typically offer reasonable walkability for daily essentials, with pedestrian access to local shops and community facilities.
Hypothesis: Given its location outside Dublin and the limited specific amenity data, the property's value is likely more sensitive to local infrastructure development and community growth plans within Castlemartyr than to direct access to major transport networks, suggesting that any future improvements to local services could significantly boost property desirability.
