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 Implications: With a SI_666 BER rating, this property's energy efficiency is not specified and could be below current standards, potentially incurring higher energy costs compared to higher-rated properties.
Details
- Size Efficiency: At 82m², the apartment offers a good balance of living space for a 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom configuration, which is competitive with the median 3-bed, 2-bath properties in the market.
- Value Optimization Potential: Upgrading the BER rating from an unspecified 'SI_666' to a C-rated standard could cost an estimated €6,000-€10,000 but potentially increase the property's value by €10,000-€15,000, representing a sound investment.
- Hypothesis: The unspecified 'SI_666' BER rating presents a unique opportunity; while current energy costs are unknown, investing in a targeted BER upgrade to a B-rating could cost approximately €8,000-€12,000 and, combined with the property's competitive size and bathroom count, may yield a property value increase of €15,000-€20,000, significantly enhancing its appeal and long-term investment potential.
Amenities
Transport Connectivity: This apartment is well-served by public transport, with bus routes such as the 214, 206, and 215 providing access to Cork city centre and surrounding areas, and is approximately a 20-minute walk to Cork Kent Train Station.
Details
- Local Conveniences: The area boasts essential amenities including Cork University Hospital within a 15-minute walk, while the Victoria Cross shopping area offers a range of local shops and services, including a Supervalu supermarket.
- Educational Hub: Proximity to educational institutions is a strong draw, with University College Cork (UCC) approximately 1.5km away and Scoil Mhuire gan Smal and St. Vincent's Secondary School within a 1km radius.
- Hypothesis: The strategic location of Victoria Cross, offering direct bus routes like the 214 to UCC and Cork city centre, combined with the presence of Cork University Hospital and a vibrant local retail hub, suggests that properties in this specific micro-location will continue to see rental demand from students and hospital staff, driving sustained capital growth independent of broader market fluctuations.
