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
Good BER Efficiency: A B3 BER rating suggests that the property benefits from moderate energy efficiency, likely resulting in annual energy costs of approximately €1,500-€1,900, compared to €2,200-€2,800 for a similar-sized D-rated property.
Optimised Space: With 120m² spread across 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, the property offers a good balance of living space and amenity, providing approximately 30m² per bedroom.
Value Potential: Investing in BER upgrades from B3 to B1 could cost approximately €5,000-€8,000 and potentially increase the property's value by €7,000-€10,000, enhancing long-term efficiency and market appeal.
Hypothesis: The B3 BER rating, while good, indicates a potential opportunity for further enhancement; targeting insulation upgrades and efficient heating system retrofits could push the BER to A-rating, potentially unlocking savings of €700-€1,000 annually and a 2-3% uplift in market value in a market that increasingly prioritizes energy efficiency.
Amenities
Connectivity via Bus: While specific bus routes are not listed, the area of Ballyhit, Barntown is generally served by Bus Éireann routes connecting to Wexford town and surrounding areas, facilitating access to regional transport hubs.
Proximity to Services: The property is located near Barntown's local amenities, which typically include a primary school (e.g., Barntown National School) and convenience shops, with Wexford town offering comprehensive retail and healthcare options like Wexford General Hospital.
Rural Lifestyle Appeal: The location offers a desirable rural setting with access to local walks and green spaces, appealing to those seeking a quieter lifestyle while remaining within a reasonable commuting distance of Wexford town's cultural and commercial offerings.
Hypothesis: The relatively limited direct public transport links to major cities, contrasted with the strong local community and natural amenities of Co. Wexford, suggest that this property's value proposition is heavily weighted towards those seeking a lifestyle move rather than daily commuting to Dublin, and future value may be significantly boosted by any improvements in cross-county public transport connectivity.
