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 D1 BER rating to a B2 could cost an estimated €8,000-€12,000, potentially increasing the property's value by €15,000-€20,000, and reducing current energy costs estimated at €1,800-€2,200 annually for a D1 rating.
Details
- Size Efficiency: At 87.0m², the property is 9.09% smaller than the average property size of 95.9m² sold within 1km over the last 180 days, indicating it's on the smaller side for the immediate market.
- Value Optimization: The property's current configuration of 3 beds and 1 bath aligns with the median of 3 beds and 1 bath within a 1km radius, but a second bathroom would significantly enhance its market appeal and potentially optimize value.
- Hypothesis: Given that 100% of properties within 1km over the last 180 days have an unknown BER, this property's D1 rating is a known detractor; however, a targeted €10,000 BER upgrade could yield a €17,500 value uplift and a more competitive market position against any future properties with better ratings.
Amenities
Transport Connectivity: The area is served by Dublin Bus routes 49 and 65, providing direct links to Dublin city centre and surrounding suburbs, with the Luas Red Line at Belgard and Tallaght stops accessible via bus connections.
Details
- Local Amenities: Residents have convenient access to The Square Shopping Centre, a major retail hub with a wide array of shops, supermarkets, and services, as well as nearby supermarkets like Lidl and SuperValu.
- Healthcare and Education: Firhouse Medical Centre and Tallaght University Hospital are within a short drive, while local schools include Scoil Treasa and St. Colmcille's Community School, catering to primary and secondary education needs.
- Hypothesis: While Dodder Lawn benefits from proximity to The Square and key bus routes, the lack of a direct Luas stop within walking distance means commuters may face longer journey times compared to properties directly on a Luas line, creating a potential accessibility gap for city centre commuters.
