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 C3 BER rating to a B2 could cost an estimated €6,000-€8,000 and potentially increase property value by €10,000-€15,000.
Size Efficiency: At 120.0m², this 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom terrace is slightly smaller than the 1km median sale price for similar broad types (€600,000), suggesting efficient use of space.
Value Optimization: Achieving an optimal value could involve upgrading the single bathroom to two, a potential investment of €8,000-€12,000 that could add €15,000-€20,000 to the property's appeal and value.
Hypothesis: With a C3 BER, the property's annual energy costs are estimated at €1,400-€1,800, and a targeted upgrade to B2 could reduce this by €400-€600 annually, making it more competitive against A-rated properties.
Amenities
Transport Connectivity: Skerries is served by Dublin Bus routes 33, 33a, and 33b, providing direct access to Dublin city center, and is within reach of train stations like Skerries Station.
Local Lifestyle: Residents have access to amenities like the shops on Strand Street, cafes such as The Blue Bar, and green spaces like Skerries South Beach and Barnageeragh Park.
Family Services: The area is supported by primary schools like Realt na Mara Primary School and secondary schools such as Colaiste an Chraobh Rua, along with local GAA clubs and playgrounds.
Hypothesis: The ongoing development and potential enhancement of the Skerries DART line extension, if realized, could significantly boost property values within a 1km radius by improving commuter times to Dublin city by an estimated 20-30%.
