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 Improvement Opportunity: Upgrading the E1 BER rating to a B2 would likely cost €8,000-€12,000 but could increase the property's value by €15,000-€20,000, offering a solid return on investment.
Details
- Size Efficiency: At 73m², the property is slightly smaller than the 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom median size of 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms typically found within a 100km radius.
- Value Optimization: Given the E1 BER, the estimated annual energy costs are likely around €1,800-€2,200, compared to €800-€1,200 for a B-rated property of similar size, highlighting a significant saving potential of €1,000-€1,400 annually.
- Hypothesis: The significant disparity between the property's E1 BER and the median 2-bathroom, 3-bedroom configuration within a 100km radius (where BER data is unknown but typically higher for newer stock) suggests that targeted energy efficiency upgrades could unlock a substantial value premium that is currently being overlooked by the market.
Amenities
Transport Accessibility: Arklow is served by Bus Éireann routes 131 and 133, connecting residents to Dublin and surrounding towns, with potential access to national rail services from Arklow train station.
Details
- Local Essentials: Residents have access to numerous local amenities, including Arklow Shopping Centre, a variety of supermarkets like Tesco and Dunnes Stores, and healthcare facilities such as Arklow Medical Centre.
- Family Focus: The area is well-catered for families with St. Mary's College (secondary), Arklow CBS (secondary), and several primary schools including St. Peter's National School within a 2km radius, complemented by childcare options like Bright Beginnings.
- Hypothesis: While specific Luas or DART services are absent in Arklow, the existing Bus Éireann network and Arklow train station provide direct connectivity to Dublin, suggesting that the lack of light rail is compensated by strong national transport links, which may appeal to a specific commuter demographic seeking a balance between cost and commute time.
