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
Energy Efficiency: With a B BER rating, this property is well-positioned for energy efficiency, likely incurring annual energy costs of €1,000-€1,400, compared to €1,800-€2,200 for a similar D-rated property in the area.
Space and Configuration: At 146m² with 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, this detached home offers generous space that aligns well with typical family needs in the area, potentially exceeding the average size for properties in its immediate vicinity.
Value Optimization: While not requiring immediate major upgrades for BER, a strategic investment to achieve an A-rated BER (estimated cost €10,000-€15,000) could further enhance long-term value by €18,000-€25,000 and reduce running costs by another €300-€500 annually.
Hypothesis: Given the B BER rating, future buyers might expect a premium valuation closer to A-rated properties if minor upgrades are undertaken, potentially justifying a 5-7% uplift in value beyond current market trends by targeting an A3 or A2 rating.
Amenities
Transport Connectivity: While not directly served by Luas or DART, Drogheda train station provides direct rail links to Dublin City Centre, and local bus routes such as the 182 and 183 offer regular services to Dublin Airport and Dublin City.
Educational Facilities: The immediate vicinity is served by St. Mary's Primary School and St. Oliver's Community College, both within a short driving distance, offering good local educational options for families.
Lifestyle and Retail: Residents have access to a range of amenities including Scotch Hall Shopping Centre for retail, local restaurants like The Glyde Inn for dining, and nearby green spaces such as the Boyne River Valley for recreational activities.
Hypothesis: The proximity to Drogheda train station, a key artery for Dublin commuters, combined with the ongoing regeneration projects in Drogheda town centre, suggests a growing appeal for this location among professionals seeking a balance between urban access and a more affordable lifestyle outside the capital.
