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 Investment Opportunity: The 'B' BER rating suggests good energy efficiency; upgrading from a D-rated property (estimated annual costs €1,800-€2,200) to a 'B' could save €1,000-€1,400 annually in energy costs.
Size Advantage: At 120m², this apartment is 10m² larger than the median size implied by the 10km radius data (assuming a typical apartment size), offering more living space.
Value Optimization: While listed at €190,000, the estimated value is €267,437, indicating potential for value increase if marketed effectively or if market conditions align with the valuation model.
Hypothesis: Given the 'B' BER rating and 120m² size, the property presents an opportunity for value enhancement through targeted interior modernisations, potentially bridging the gap to the higher estimated value and making it more competitive with properties in higher price brackets within a 20km radius.
Amenities
Transport Connectivity: Athy is served by Bus Éireann routes 823 and 824, connecting it to Kildare town and Carlow, with Athy Train Station providing regular services to Dublin Heuston.
Local Amenities: The property is within proximity to Lidl, SuperValu, and various local shops on Duke Street, as well as Athy General Hospital and numerous pharmacies.
Family & Lifestyle: Nearby educational facilities include St. Michael's College and Athy Community College, alongside local parks like Athy Town AFC Grounds for leisure.
Hypothesis: The proposed infrastructure upgrades for Athy, including potential improvements to public transport links and the ongoing development of the Athy town centre, could significantly boost property values by improving its appeal as a commuter town and a self-sufficient residential hub.
