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
Modest Energy Efficiency: The C1 BER rating suggests average energy performance; bringing it up to a B2 rating could cost approximately €8,000-€12,000 and potentially increase property value by €15,000-€20,000.
Compact Living Space: At 49m², this 1-bedroom apartment is smaller than the median sale price for the same broad type within 1km (€290,000) which suggests buyers may be seeking larger units for that price point.
Value Optimization Potential: With a BER of C1, annual energy costs are estimated to be between €1,400-€1,800, compared to €800-€1,200 for a B2 rated property, indicating a potential saving of €600-€1,000 annually through targeted upgrades.
Hypothesis: Given the C1 BER rating and the smaller size of 49m², optimizing the property's quality by improving its energy efficiency to a B-rating could significantly enhance its appeal and potentially reduce annual running costs by up to €1,000, making it more competitive against larger or better-rated properties in the local market.
Amenities
Key Transport Hub: The property is served by multiple Dublin Bus routes including the 209 and 210, offering direct connectivity to Cork City Centre, and is within a reasonable distance to Cork Kent train station.
Local Services Abound: Residents have convenient access to Wilton Shopping Centre for retail needs, Cork University Hospital for healthcare, and Scoil na Croise Naofa for education.
Green Spaces Nearby: The property is a short walk from Fitzgerald's Park, providing residents with a valuable green space for recreation and leisure activities.
Hypothesis: The presence of major institutions like Cork University Hospital and University College Cork within proximity, coupled with a strong bus network serving the area, suggests that properties in Wilton are well-positioned to attract both healthcare professionals and students, driving consistent demand and potentially steady capital appreciation due to their practical location.
