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

B3 BER Advantage: With a B3 BER rating, this apartment is more energy efficient than properties with lower ratings, potentially saving €800-€1,200 annually on energy costs compared to a D-rated property of similar size.

Details
  • Compact Living Space: At 63m², this apartment offers a medium-sized living space, which is smaller than the 1km average property size of 121.81m² over the last 180 days, suggesting a focus on efficient use of space.
  • Upgrade Potential for Value: While a B3 rating is decent, achieving an A-rated BER would likely require an investment of €5,000-€8,000 in further insulation and heating upgrades, potentially increasing its market value by €8,000-€12,000.
  • Hypothesis: The prevalence of 100% BER unknown ratings within 1km over the last 180 days highlights a potential information gap; this property's known B3 rating offers a competitive edge, but a proactive buyer could further enhance its value by seeking detailed energy audits for similar apartments to identify optimization opportunities.

Amenities

Excellent Transport Hub: Located in Sandymount, residents have access to the DART at Sandymount Station (approx. 500m) and numerous Dublin Bus routes including the 7 and 47, providing swift connectivity to the city centre and surrounding areas.

Details
  • Prime Local Amenities: This area boasts proximity to Sandymount Strand for recreational activities, along with numerous cafes and restaurants like 'The Strand' and 'Dunne & Crescenzi' within walking distance.
  • Educational Proximity: The property is within a reasonable distance of esteemed educational institutions, including Star of the Sea Primary School (approx. 700m) and the secondary level facilities in the vicinity.
  • Hypothesis: The strong connectivity offered by the nearby DART station and bus routes, combined with the high density of lifestyle and educational amenities in Sandymount, positions this apartment for continued strong demand, particularly from professionals and families who value both convenience and quality of life.
