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 Improvement Potential: Upgrading the E2 BER rating could cost €8,000-€12,000 but potentially increase property value by €15,000-€20,000, with annual energy costs estimated at €1,800-€2,200 vs. €800-€1,200 for B-rated properties.
Details
- Compact Living: At 75.0m², this 2-bed terrace is on the smaller side compared to the 3-bedroom median in the 100km radius, which suggests efficient use of space but might limit family suitability.
- Value Optimization Opportunity: Investing €8,000-€12,000 to improve the E2 BER rating to a C1 could add €15,000-€20,000 to the property's value and significantly reduce ongoing energy expenses.
- Hypothesis: A targeted investment of €8,000-€12,000 to upgrade the E2 BER rating to a B2 could not only unlock €15,000-€20,000 in immediate value uplift but also position the property favourably against the 100km radius median BER of 'unknown' (100% of properties).'
Amenities
Kilkenny City Access: Located in Kilkenny city, this property benefits from direct access to a range of amenities including Kilkenny Train Station, serving multiple national routes.
Details
- Local Services and Schools: Within Kilkenny city, residents have easy access to amenities such as Kilkenny Castle, St. Mary's Cathedral, primary schools like St. John's National School, and secondary schools like Coláiste Pobal Osraí.
- Walkable City Environment: The property's position in Kilkenny city centre promotes walkability, with amenities like Market Cross Shopping Centre, numerous cafes such as Cakeface Bakery, and parks like the Circular Road Park all within a short walking distance.
- Hypothesis: The strategic location within Kilkenny city, a UNESCO City of Design, suggests a strong demand for properties offering walkability to cultural landmarks and city services, potentially driving higher rental yields and capital appreciation compared to more suburban or rural offerings.
