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 Opportunity: 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 aligning it with higher-value local properties.
Size vs. Local Norm: At 120m², this 2-bedroom detached property is smaller than the median sale price for same-type properties within 1km (€1,375,000), suggesting it may be considered compact for its type in this micro-market.
Value Optimization: The property's €525,000 asking price, given its D1 BER and 2-bedroom configuration, appears to be priced below the median sale price for similar broad types (€662,500 within 3km), suggesting potential for value optimization through improvements.
Hypothesis: The significant gap between the property's D1 BER and the higher BER ratings prevalent in comparable sales indicates a substantial opportunity for capital appreciation through targeted energy efficiency upgrades, potentially unlocking a significant portion of the value difference observed in the local market.
