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 Rating Advantage: With a C1 BER rating, this property is more energy-efficient than many older homes, likely resulting in annual energy cost savings of €300-€500 compared to G-rated properties of similar size.
Size Efficiency: At 106m², this 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom semi-detached home offers a good balance of living space and manageable size for a family, aligning well with typical dwelling sizes in the area.
Value Optimization Opportunity: While the C1 BER is decent, upgrading to a B2 rating could cost an estimated €7,000-€10,000 and potentially increase the property's value by €10,000-€15,000.
Hypothesis: Given the C1 BER rating and the relatively standard size for a 3-bed semi-detached property, a focus on specific internal upgrades such as modernising bathrooms and kitchen finishes, rather than broad energy efficiency improvements, would yield a higher return on investment in this particular micro-market.
Amenities
Transport Connectivity: Drogheda is served by Irish Rail with a train station providing direct links to Dublin Connolly, and Bus Éireann routes such as the 100X offer commuter services to Dublin City.
Local Amenities: The area benefits from a range of services including Scotch Hall Shopping Centre for retail, Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital for healthcare, and numerous local primary and secondary schools.
Family Facilities: Proximity to local parks such as Mellifont Park and various childcare facilities like Busy Bees Childcare contribute to a family-friendly environment.
Hypothesis: The strong connectivity provided by Drogheda's train station to Dublin, coupled with the town's comprehensive local amenities, suggests that properties in well-located areas like Silk Park are likely to see sustained demand from both local families and Dublin commuters, potentially driving price growth beyond general market trends.
