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 Efficiency: With a B3 BER rating, this apartment is positioned to offer moderate energy efficiency, likely resulting in annual energy costs of approximately €1,300-€1,700, compared to €1,800-€2,200 for a D-rated property of similar size.
Space Value: The 77m² apartment offers 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, a common configuration, but the price per square meter can be analyzed against the nearby median of €8,117 within 1km over 180 days.
Optimization Opportunity: Upgrading the BER from B3 to B2 could cost an estimated €3,000-€5,000 and potentially add €5,000-€8,000 in value, offering a swift return on investment and improved marketability.
Hypothesis: Given the prevalence of higher BER ratings in new developments in Dublin 4, the B3 rating might present a slight disadvantage for long-term value appreciation against A-rated properties, suggesting that future buyers might prioritize further energy efficiency upgrades, thereby limiting the immediate upside from the current rating.
Amenities
Transport Hub: The property is well-served by public transport, with Dublin Bus routes 46A, 145, and 155 operating within walking distance on nearby main roads, and the Sandymount DART station approximately 1.2km away.
Local Conveniences: Residents have easy access to a range of amenities including specialist shops on Baggot Street, supermarkets like Donnybrook Fair and Tesco within 1km, and numerous cafes and restaurants in the Ballsbridge and Donnybrook areas.
Green Spaces: The property boasts excellent walkability to several parks, including Herbert Park (800m) and the Aviva Stadium grounds, offering ample recreational opportunities for residents.
Hypothesis: The concentration of high-end retail, proximity to the financial services district, and excellent transport links contribute to a strong demand from affluent professionals and international residents, creating a consistent pool of buyers willing to pay a premium for the Ballsbridge address and associated lifestyle.
