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 current 'C' BER rating to a 'B2' could cost approximately €4,000-€6,000 and is estimated to increase the property's value by €7,000-€10,000, offering a potential return on investment.
Size Efficiency
With 80.0m² for a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom terrace, the property offers 40.0m² per bedroom, which is competitive for its type and size category within the local market.
Value Optimization
Given the 'C' BER rating, the estimated annual energy costs are likely between €1,100-€1,500, whereas comparable properties with a 'B' rating could achieve savings of €300-€500 annually, highlighting an opportunity for increased buyer appeal with targeted energy efficiency improvements.
Hypothesis: The 'C' BER rating, while not poor, represents a significant opportunity for value enhancement; investing €5,000-€8,000 to achieve a 'B1' or 'A3' rating could unlock an additional €10,000-€15,000 in market value, especially as energy cost concerns grow among buyers.
Amenities
Transport Links
The area is served by Dublin Bus routes 163 and 167, providing connectivity to Drogheda town centre and surrounding areas, with the nearest train station being Drogheda Railway Station approximately 3km away.
Local Services
Residents have convenient access to a range of amenities including Centra supermarket (1.2km), St. Mary's National School (1km), and Drogheda General Hospital (2.5km).
Recreational Access
The property is located within 2km of the Laytown & Bettystown Golf Club and a 15-minute drive to the coastal amenities of Bettystown Beach, offering good lifestyle options.
Hypothesis: The lack of direct Luas or DART access within a 10km radius, coupled with reliance on bus routes like the 163 and 167, positions this property more as a local commuter hub than a direct Dublin commuter base, suggesting that its value is primarily driven by local Drogheda employment and amenities rather than intercity transit efficiency.
