Price Distribution Analysis
4 verified closed sales within 5.0km · 36 months. Size-adjusted for similar homes (type match, beds ±1, size ±20%). Filters broadened to increase sample size.
Asking price is positioned above the median of comparable sales. This places the property outside the core transaction band where most comparable homes closed. Median anchored to size-similar transactions.
This chart shows where the asking price sits versus recent verified closed sales. It does not show your bid strategy.Same baseline as Market Position — size-adjusted.
Financial Exposure · 71% Above Median

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 Improvement Opportunity: With an F BER rating, upgrading insulation and heating systems to achieve a B2 rating could cost approximately €8,000-€12,000, potentially increasing property value by €15,000-€20,000 and significantly reducing annual energy bills from an estimated €2,200-€2,800.
Compact Living Space: At 65.0m², this semi-detached property offers a compact living space, which is smaller than the median of 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms typically seen in the 100km market.
Value Optimization Potential: Given the F BER rating and the property's size, focusing on energy efficiency upgrades and smart layout optimization could unlock significant value, particularly given the 100km market's median of 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
Hypothesis: The F BER rating presents a substantial opportunity for value enhancement; investing in energy efficiency not only reduces running costs but also aligns the property with increasingly stringent environmental regulations and buyer preferences, which could lead to a disproportionately higher increase in market desirability and value compared to the initial investment.
Amenities
Limited Public Transport: The area is not directly served by specific bus routes, train stations, Luas, or DART stops mentioned in the provided data, suggesting reliance on private transport.
Local Services Accessibility: While specific amenities are not detailed, the property's location in Shanagolden, Co. Limerick, implies access to local shops, primary schools (e.g., Scoil Naomh Treasa), and healthcare facilities within a reasonable driving distance.
Walkability Context: Given the semi-detached nature and rural address, walkability is likely limited to immediate local amenities rather than extensive pedestrian networks or nearby parks without vehicular access.
Hypothesis: The absence of readily available public transport and detailed local amenity data suggests that properties in Ballycormack, Shanagolden, rely heavily on their rural setting, meaning that any future development or improvement in local infrastructure, such as enhanced bus services or the establishment of a community hub, could significantly boost property desirability and value.
