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 C3 BER rating to a B2 could cost approximately €8,000-€12,000 and potentially increase the property's value by €15,000-€20,000, representing a solid return on investment.
Details
- Spacious Apartment: At 120.0m², this apartment is 20% larger than the average 2-bed apartment size within a 10km radius (estimated 100m²), offering significant living space for its configuration.
- Cost-Effective Energy Savings: A C3 BER rating suggests that current annual energy costs are likely in the €1,400-€1,800 range, whereas upgrading to a B2 rating could reduce this by €400-€600 annually.
- Hypothesis: While the apartment offers ample space for a 2-bed unit, its C3 BER rating may hinder its appeal to environmentally conscious buyers. A targeted energy efficiency upgrade, beyond the minimum required, could differentiate it significantly in the market and command a 5-7% premium over similar C3-rated properties.
Amenities
Transport Hub Access: This location is well-served by Bus Eireann routes operating from Carlow Town Centre (1km away), offering connections to Dublin and other major towns, with the nearest train station being Carlow Station (1.5km away).
Details
- Local Education & Retail: Proximity to Scoil Mhuire Gan Smal primary school (500m) and Carlow Institute of Further Education (1km), alongside the visual presence of major retailers like Dunnes Stores and Tesco within the town centre (1km), ensures convenient access to essential services.
- Urban Walkability: Located in Hanover Square, residents can easily access Kennedy Avenue's pedestrianised areas and the town centre within a 1km walk, offering a good balance of residential calm and urban convenience.
- Hypothesis: The current amenity offering, particularly transport links to Dublin and local services, supports the property's valuation. However, the lack of specific information on local parks or leisure facilities within a 1km radius, beyond general town centre amenities, might represent a missed opportunity to further enhance its appeal to families and lifestyle-focused buyers.
