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 Rating Opportunity: The 'C' BER rating for this 98m² apartment suggests that energy efficiency upgrades could be a worthwhile investment, potentially increasing its market value and reducing ongoing utility costs.
Space Efficiency: With 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms spanning 98m², this apartment offers a reasonable space allocation, aligning with current market demand for family-sized living within an apartment complex.
Value Optimization: Given the asking price of €249,000 and an estimated value of €275,797.16, there is an opportunity to achieve a better price through targeted property enhancements, such as energy efficiency improvements or cosmetic upgrades.
Hypothesis: Investing €5,000-€8,000 to upgrade the BER rating from 'C' to a 'B' could potentially increase the property's value by €10,000-€15,000, offering a strong return on investment and improving its marketability against more energy-efficient apartments.
Amenities
Transport Links: Suncroft's connectivity relies heavily on local bus services, with potential routes serving the area, however, direct access to Luas or DART stations would require significant travel, impacting commute times to Dublin.
Local Services: The immediate area likely offers essential local services such as corner shops and a post office, with larger retail centres and a wider array of restaurants and cafes found in nearby towns like Newbridge.
Educational Facilities: Suncroft benefits from local primary schools, such as St. Brigid's National School, and secondary school options are available in nearby larger towns, catering to family needs.
Hypothesis: The relative isolation of Suncroft from major public transport hubs like train stations or Luas stops suggests that the property's appeal will be strongest to buyers who prioritize a quieter, more rural lifestyle and are less reliant on daily public transport commutes to Dublin city centre.
