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 C2 Efficiency: A C2 BER rating suggests moderate energy efficiency; upgrading to a B2 could cost approximately €10,000-€15,000, potentially increasing value by €18,000-€25,000 and reducing annual energy costs by an estimated €700-€1,000 compared to its current rating.
Generous Space: At 110m², the apartment offers 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, providing ample living space that is larger than the median apartment size for properties sold within 1km.
Value Optimization: The property's current condition, with a C2 BER, presents an opportunity for value enhancement through targeted energy upgrades, which are a key consideration for buyers in today's market.
Hypothesis: While the C2 BER rating is acceptable, the potential for significant cost savings and property value uplift through a strategic BER upgrade (e.g., to B2) suggests that investing an additional €10,000-€15,000 could yield a return of €18,000-€25,000, making it a financially prudent enhancement for this 110m² apartment.

Hypothesis: The high walkability score, combined with direct Luas and numerous bus routes, positions Gloucester Square as a prime location for young professionals and city dwellers, with the potential for sustained property value growth driven by ongoing urban regeneration projects and increased demand for central living.
