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
Energy Efficiency Opportunity: With a BER D2 rating, upgrading to a B2 rating could cost an estimated €8,000-€12,000, but would likely increase the property's value by €15,000-€20,000, offering a significant return on investment.
Details
- Annual Energy Savings: The current D2 BER rating means estimated annual energy costs of €1,800-€2,200, which could be reduced to €800-€1,200 with an upgrade to a B-rated property, saving €1,000-€1,400 annually.
- Compact Living: At 59 square meters, this 1-bedroom apartment offers a compact living space, which aligns with typical requirements for single occupants or couples, though it is smaller than the median 3-4 bed homes in the 5km radius.
- Hypothesis: Strategic investment in BER upgrades, potentially combined with smart space-saving solutions, could significantly enhance this compact apartment's market appeal and competitive edge, especially as buyers increasingly prioritize energy efficiency in a smaller footprint.
Amenities
Central Transport Hub: Located near Northgate Street, the apartment offers excellent connectivity, being within walking distance of Athlone Rail Station for intercity travel and numerous Bus Éireann stops, including routes like the 20/X20 connecting to Dublin and Galway.
Details
- Lifestyle & Retail Access: The property is superbly positioned for lifestyle and retail needs, with Golden Island Shopping Centre and Athlone Towncentre minutes away, alongside a wide array of local shops, cafes like Coffee Works, and restaurants such as The Fatted Calf.
- Education & Healthcare Proximity: Essential services are easily accessible, including primary schools like St. Mary's National School, secondary options such as Athlone Community College, and numerous GP clinics and pharmacies in Athlone town centre.
- Hypothesis: The property's prime central Athlone location, offering unparalleled access to public transport, extensive retail, diverse dining, and educational facilities, ensures sustained demand from a wide range of buyers, from young professionals to downsizers, bolstering its long-term investment appeal regardless of minor market fluctuations.
