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 Challenge: With a BER rating of SI_666 (likely a D or E rating), upgrading to a B2 standard could cost €8,000-€12,000 but potentially increase property value by €15,000-€20,000.
Space Efficiency: At 89m² with 4 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, the property has a relatively low bathroom-to-bedroom ratio, which might be a deterrent for some buyers and could impact future resale value.
Value Optimization Potential: Investing in a second bathroom could cost approximately €5,000-€8,000 and significantly enhance the property's appeal and marketability, potentially adding €10,000-€15,000 in value.
Hypothesis: Properties with a SI_666 BER rating within 1km have a median sale price of €190,000 for the same type, indicating a significant value discount compared to higher BER rated properties, suggesting an opportunity for value uplift through energy upgrades.
Amenities
Transport Links: This property is served by local Sligo town bus routes, offering connectivity within the town and to surrounding areas; there is no Luas or DART access in Sligo.
Local Conveniences: Proximity to Sligo town centre provides access to shops like Dunnes Stores and Aldi, while healthcare is available at Sligo University Hospital approximately 2km away.
Green Spaces: The property is within reasonable walking distance of Doorly Park and the Sligo town centre pedestrian areas, offering local recreational opportunities.
Hypothesis: The lack of rail connectivity in Sligo means that properties like this in John Street will continue to be valued primarily on their town-centre proximity and local amenities, with any future significant value uplift likely tied to local infrastructure projects rather than national transport links.
