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.

- —All figures from registered closed sales only — no asking prices, no agent estimates
Local Market Notes
Property Quality
BER Rating Impact: With a C1 BER rating, potential annual energy costs are estimated to be €1,400-€1,800, compared to €1,800-€2,200 for a D-rated property of similar size, offering moderate savings.
Size and Space: At 169.0m², this 5-bedroom, 4-bathroom property offers ample living space, aligning well with the market's demand for larger family homes, especially considering the 4 bathrooms which is a significant amenity.
Value Optimization: Upgrading the C1 BER to a B2 rating would likely cost €8,000-€12,000 and could increase the property's value by €15,000-€20,000, offering a clear return on investment through improved energy efficiency and market appeal.
Hypothesis: The C1 BER rating, while not top-tier, suggests a property that has likely had some modern energy efficiency upgrades, and a targeted investment in further insulation and heating system upgrades could yield significant long-term savings and capital appreciation.
Amenities
Transport Connectivity: While specific bus routes and train stations for Westport, Co Mayo are not detailed in the provided data, the location suggests potential access to regional bus services connecting to larger hubs.

Hypothesis: The presence of a golf course in the immediate vicinity, along with Westport's reputation as a scenic tourist town, indicates strong potential for lifestyle-driven demand and potential short-term rental income, adding a unique value proposition beyond typical residential metrics.
