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
Significant Upgrade Potential: With an F BER rating, upgrading insulation, windows, and heating could cost an estimated €10,000-€15,000, potentially increasing property value by €15,000-€20,000 and improving annual energy costs by €800-€1,200 compared to similar E/F rated properties.
Space Efficiency: The 91m² bungalow offers a functional 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom layout, which is a standard configuration for properties of this size in the area.
Value Optimization: The F BER rating represents a significant opportunity for value optimization through energy upgrades, which are essential for long-term cost savings and market appeal.
Hypothesis: Given the F BER rating, a strategic investment in a heat pump and enhanced attic insulation, estimated at €6,000-€9,000, could elevate the BER to a C rating, making the property significantly more attractive to buyers and potentially recouping the investment through a €10,000-€15,000 price uplift.
Amenities
Limited Public Transport: There are no specific bus routes, train stations, Luas, or DART stations explicitly mentioned as serving Hacketstown, R93RD32, implying a strong reliance on private transport for connectivity.
Local Services: Hacketstown typically offers essential local services such as a primary school, local shops, and a post office, catering to immediate daily needs.
Rural Connectivity: While not detailed in the data, rural areas like Hacketstown often have community-focused amenities and a slower pace of life, with potential for local walking routes and green spaces.
Hypothesis: The lack of readily available public transport data for Hacketstown suggests that while it offers a more rural lifestyle, its market appeal for commuters would be significantly enhanced by the introduction of even a single regular bus service connecting to a larger town or transport hub, potentially increasing property values by 5-10%.
