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
Suboptimal BER Rating: The C1 BER rating suggests that improving energy efficiency to a B2 could cost €8,000-€12,000 and potentially increase property value by €15,000-€20,000, representing a worthwhile investment.
Spacious Configuration: With 191m² and 5 bedrooms/5 bathrooms, this property offers a substantial living space, which is a key quality indicator in many property markets.
Value Optimization Potential: Given the C1 BER, focusing on insulation, heating system upgrades, and potential solar panel installation could optimize running costs and enhance market appeal, bridging the gap to higher-rated properties.
Hypothesis: The C1 BER rating, while not poor, represents a missed opportunity for significant value uplift; strategic energy upgrades could create a substantial competitive advantage over C and D rated properties, translating into higher resale value and lower running costs.
Amenities
Limited Public Transport: Glengarriff is not served by any DART, Luas, or national train stations. The nearest public transport would likely be local bus services which are not specified in the provided data, impacting connectivity.
Rural Service Access: While specific shops, schools, and healthcare facilities in Bocarnagh, Glengarriff are not detailed, rural locations typically have fewer immediate options, requiring travel to larger towns for comprehensive services.
Walkability Challenges: As a property in Bocarnagh, Glengarriff, walkability to essential services like supermarkets or schools is likely limited, necessitating reliance on private transportation for daily errands.
Hypothesis: The property's value proposition relies heavily on its intrinsic appeal as a secluded rural dwelling, with amenities and connectivity being secondary factors, suggesting a niche buyer prioritising tranquility over convenience and public transport access.
