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 Improvement Opportunity: Upgrading the D2 BER rating to a B2 could cost an estimated €8,000-€12,000 and potentially increase the property's value by €15,000-€20,000, representing a worthwhile investment.
Details
- Spacious Configuration: With 216m² of living space and 4 bedrooms, this detached property offers a generous size, aligning with the '2X Very Large' size category and catering to larger family needs.
- Value Optimization Potential: Currently priced at €1,620 per m² based on asking price, there is potential for value optimization through BER improvements, which could enhance its market appeal and increase its value per m².
- Hypothesis: The current D2 BER rating, while offering immediate cost savings compared to lower-rated properties, presents a significant opportunity for value enhancement through targeted energy efficiency upgrades, potentially unlocking a €15,000-€20,000 uplift if the investment is made to reach a B2 rating, thereby future-proofing the property and aligning it with market trends favouring sustainability.
Amenities
Limited Public Transport: The immediate area around Granard, Co. Longford, lacks direct access to national rail services or Luas/DART lines; travel to these would require significant onward journeys via local bus services, such as Bus Éireann routes, which may not offer frequent direct connections.
Details
- Local Services Availability: While Granard offers essential amenities such as local shops, pharmacies like McAuliffe Pharmacy, and educational facilities including Granard Central National School and Ardscoil Phádraig, it does not boast the extensive retail or specialized healthcare found in larger urban centres.
- Community Focus: The area is served by local community centres and parks, fostering a strong community feel, with options like the Granard Playground providing family-friendly spaces, but lacks high-street retail centres or diverse dining options found in more urbanised settings.
- Hypothesis: The value proposition for properties in Ballynacross, Granard, is heavily reliant on the local community's self-sufficiency and rural charm rather than extensive connectivity or a wide array of urban amenities; future value appreciation may be tied to improvements in local infrastructure or increased appeal for those seeking a more rural lifestyle, rather than a direct link to major transport hubs or metropolitan services.
