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 Potential: Upgrading the C2 BER rating could cost approximately €5,000-€8,000 and potentially increase the property's value by €7,000-€10,000, making it more competitive against higher-rated properties.
Energy Cost Savings: A C2 BER rating means annual energy costs are estimated to be around €1,400-€1,800, compared to €900-€1,200 for properties with B-rated BERs in the same size category, representing a potential annual saving of €500-€600 for a higher-rated property.
Space Efficiency: At 74sqm with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, the property offers a good balance of living space and private facilities, which is generally well-received in the apartment market.
Hypothesis: Given the C2 BER rating and the presence of numerous higher-rated apartments within a 1km radius (indicated by a median sale price per sqm of €2,975 for all types), investing in energy efficiency upgrades could yield a higher return on investment than in areas with lower average BERs, by reducing the €1,400-€1,800 annual energy cost and enhancing market appeal.
Amenities
Transport Links: The property is well-connected, likely served by Sligo Bus routes such as 60, 64, and 66, offering good access to Sligo town centre and surrounding areas, with Sligo Bus Station (approx. 1.5km) being a key hub.
Local Conveniences: Proximity to Connolly Street offers access to essential services, with potential nearby amenities like Centra (approx. 800m), pharmacies such as HSE Primary Care Centre Pharmacy (approx. 1.2km), and healthcare at Sligo University Hospital (approx. 2km).
Educational and Lifestyle Access: The area is within reach of educational facilities like Scoil Ursula (approx. 1km) and Mercy College Sligo (approx. 1.5km), alongside lifestyle options such as businesses in the City Gate complex and potentially cafes and restaurants within a 1-2km radius.
Hypothesis: The concentration of 774 properties within a 1km radius, combined with the proximity to Sligo town centre via multiple bus routes, suggests that this apartment is positioned within a mature urban core that experiences consistent rental demand and offers a stable value proposition due to its connectivity and established amenities.
