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 B2 Advantage: With a B2 BER rating, this duplex is positioned favorably, with estimated annual energy costs potentially €1,000 to €1,400 lower than a D-rated property of similar size.
Space Efficiency: The 88.0m² duplex offers 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, a common and desirable configuration for many households, fitting well within typical market offerings for its size.
Value Optimization Opportunity: While not explicitly stated, a B2 rating indicates a good level of energy efficiency. Further investment in minor upgrades, estimated at €3,000-€5,000, could potentially push this to a B1 or A4 rating, adding an estimated €5,000-€8,000 in property value.
Hypothesis: The B2 BER rating, while good, suggests a missed opportunity for significant value uplift. Achieving an A-rated BER through further targeted upgrades could result in an estimated €15,000-€20,000 increase in property value, alongside substantial long-term energy savings, making it a prime renovation investment.
Amenities
Local Transport Access: Wicklow Town is served by Bus Éireann routes, including the 184 to Tallaght and the 185 to Rathnew, offering connectivity to wider transport networks.
Community Facilities: The area benefits from amenities such as Wicklow Gaol, Wicklow Library, and several local eateries and cafes, contributing to a well-rounded local lifestyle.
Green Space and Recreation: proximity to Wicklow's coastline and the nearby Wicklow Mountains National Park offers excellent opportunities for outdoor activities and recreation.
Hypothesis: The property's location in Wicklow Town, while offering a good quality of life and natural amenities, lacks direct access to national rail (e.g., Dart or Commuter Rail) and major motorway links (M11/M50) within immediate walking distance, meaning that commuting to Dublin will likely involve a significant bus journey or car travel time, impacting its appeal for daily Dublin commuters.
