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 Upgrade Potential: Upgrading the D2 BER rating to a B2 could cost an estimated €8,000-€12,000, potentially increasing the property's value by €15,000-€20,000.
Energy Cost Discrepancy: The current D2 BER rating likely results in annual energy costs of approximately €1,800-€2,200, compared to €800-€1,200 for a B-rated property of similar size.
Size Efficiency: With 97.0m² and 3 bedrooms, the property offers a reasonable space allocation, though its end-of-terrace configuration may impact natural light compared to mid-terrace or semi-detached alternatives in the area.
Hypothesis: Given the D2 BER rating and the significant cost difference in annual energy bills compared to higher-rated properties, there's a strong buyer incentive to invest in insulation and heating upgrades; a successful renovation could reposition this property closer to the €470,000-€478,000 median for similar property types, indicating a substantial uplift opportunity.
Amenities
Transport Connectivity: While specific bus routes serving Dunlavin are not detailed, its location outside Dublin typically implies reliance on local bus services or private transport to access major transport hubs.
Local Shopping Access: Dunlavin offers a range of local shops and services, with larger retail centres likely requiring travel to nearby towns such as Naas or Newbridge.
Community Facilities: The property is situated in Dunlavin, which typically offers local schools like Scoil Phádraig Naofa and community amenities such as a post office and local businesses, contributing to a village lifestyle.
Hypothesis: The lack of direct access to national rail or Luas/DART services within a easily walkable radius, as evidenced by the absence of specific route numbers in the data, suggests that the primary appeal of this location lies in its rural tranquility and community feel rather than commuter convenience, which could cap its value relative to properties with direct access to Dublin's public transport network.
