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
Significant BER Upgrade Cost: To improve from a G BER rating to a B2, a substantial investment of approximately €15,000-€20,000 is estimated, which could increase the property's value by €20,000-€25,000.
Below Average Size for Area: This 124 sqm property is smaller than the average property size of 162.6 sqm sold within a 1km radius over the past 180 days, suggesting it may be less competitive for buyers seeking larger homes.
Limited Bathrooms: With only one bathroom, this property is below the median of 2 bathrooms recorded for properties sold within a 1km radius over the last 180 days, potentially hindering its appeal to families or multiple occupants.
Hypothesis: The consistent 100% BER unknown rate across all market radii suggests a widespread neglect of energy efficiency reporting, creating a potential arbitrage opportunity where a property with an improved BER rating could significantly outperform its peers in terms of saleability and value, especially as regulatory focus shifts.
Amenities
Excellent DART Connectivity: The property is well-served by the DART with Howth Station located approximately 1.5km away, offering direct links to Dublin city center.
Local Bus Services: Dublin Bus routes 31, 31a, and 32 are accessible from nearby stops, providing convenient public transport options for local travel and commutes.
Proximity to Coastal Amenities: Residents have easy access to Howth Harbour, numerous cliff walk trails, and a vibrant culinary scene with restaurants like Beshoff Bros and Aqua Restaurant within a 2km radius.
Hypothesis: The strong public transport links to Dublin city, combined with the highly desirable coastal lifestyle amenities of Howth, create a premium location that could see sustained value appreciation, particularly if planned local infrastructure upgrades, such as enhancements to the coastal walkway, come to fruition.
