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 D1 BER rating to a B2 could cost an estimated €8,000-€12,000 but is projected to increase property value by €15,000-€20,000, presenting a tangible return on investment.
Details
- Size Efficiency: At 45m², this 1-bedroom apartment is compact, which aligns with the 'Small' size category and is typical for apartment living, though it may limit long-term family suitability.
- Configuration Mismatch: The property's 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom configuration is below the median of 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms observed in sales within a 100km radius, potentially limiting its appeal to a broader buyer demographic.
- Hypothesis: Given the D1 BER rating and below-median bedroom count, the property's value is likely constrained by its current energy efficiency and size relative to the wider market, suggesting that targeted upgrades and potentially a strategic price adjustment would be necessary to unlock its full market potential.
Amenities
Limited Public Transport: Newcastle West's connectivity relies on Bus Eireann routes, with no direct Luas, DART, or mainline train services within the immediate vicinity, potentially requiring longer travel times to major transport hubs.
Details
- Local Services Available: The area offers essential amenities including shops like Centra, Supervalu, and various local businesses, alongside St. Mary's Boys National School and Coláiste Mhuire secondary school, catering to basic daily needs and education.
- Walkability and Local Access: Within Newcastle West, walkability is moderate, with key amenities like the town square, local eateries such as The Square Table, and health services at the Newcastle West Primary Care Centre being accessible on foot.
- Hypothesis: The reliance on Bus Eireann routes for connectivity, rather than direct rail links, suggests that the property's commuter appeal might be limited to those working locally or within reasonable driving distance, necessitating a focus on local lifestyle amenities to attract buyers.
