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
Poor Energy Efficiency: With a G BER rating, this property is at the lowest energy efficiency tier, likely incurring significantly higher heating costs than more efficient homes.
Details
- Minimalist Configuration: A 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom, 50m² detached house is a very compact configuration, potentially limiting its appeal to larger households or those seeking more spacious living.
- Upgrade Investment Opportunity: Upgrading from a G BER rating to a C rating would typically cost between €15,000-€25,000 and could potentially increase the property's value by €20,000-€30,000, offering a clear return on investment.
- Hypothesis: The current G BER rating, combined with its small size, positions this property as a potential candidate for a comprehensive renovation and extension project, where strategic upgrades could not only improve energy efficiency by an estimated €1,500-€2,000 annually but also significantly increase its market value and rental yield.
Amenities
Limited Local Transport: Swinford, Co. Mayo, is not served by DART, Luas, or major train stations; Bus Éireann routes are the primary public transport, with specific route numbers not provided in the data.
Details
- Regional Amenities Required: Access to major retail, educational facilities like universities, and specialized healthcare facilities would likely require travel to larger towns or cities, as specific amenities in Swinford are not detailed.
- Distance to Urban Centers: While located outside Dublin, the nearest urban centres with comprehensive amenities are likely a considerable drive, impacting daily commute and access to services.
- Hypothesis: The development of enhanced public transport links, potentially including improved bus services or regional transport hubs connecting Swinford to larger centres, could significantly boost property values and appeal in this area by reducing commute times and improving access to a wider range of amenities.
