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
Strong Energy Efficiency: With a BER C3 rating, this 120m² apartment offers favourable energy efficiency, leading to estimated annual energy costs of €1,200-€1,800, notably lower than the €1,800-€2,200 typical for D-rated properties of similar size, potentially saving up to €1,000 annually.
Generous Apartment Size: At 120m², this 2-bedroom apartment is exceptionally spacious, categorised as 'Large' and offering significantly more living area than many 2-bed units, enhancing its appeal and comfort.
Potential for Layout Optimization: While large, the 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom configuration, contrasting with the local median of 3 beds and 2 baths in a 5km radius, presents an opportunity to potentially reconfigure the layout to add a second bathroom or third bedroom, which could significantly increase market value.
Hypothesis: Premium for Space: The apartment's generous 120m² size for a 2-bedroom unit in a market where the median property within 5km has 3 bedrooms suggests a strong appeal to buyers prioritizing spacious living, potentially commanding a premium even with one less bedroom than the average if the internal layout is well-optimized.
Amenities
Excellent Transport Access: The property benefits from good connectivity with Bus Éireann routes such as 401 and 402, providing direct links to Galway City Centre and surrounding areas, including Galway Ceannt Station (approx. 4-5km away).
Prime Educational & Healthcare Hub: Located advantageously close to the National University of Ireland Galway (University of Galway, approx. 2-3km) and University Hospital Galway (UHG, approx. 2-3km), enhancing appeal for students, staff, and healthcare professionals.
Comprehensive Local Services: Residents have convenient access to Westside Shopping Centre, which includes supermarkets like Dunnes Stores, alongside local amenities such as Cappagh Park for recreation and Rahoon Primary School within a short walking distance.
Hypothesis: Student and Family Demand Convergence: Rahoon's strategic location, combining proximity to University of Galway and University Hospital Galway with essential family amenities like schools and parks, indicates a dual demand stream from both the student/healthcare professional rental market and family buyers, stabilizing and strengthening property values in the long term.
