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 D1 BER rating to a B2 could cost approximately €8,000-€12,000 and potentially increase the property's value by €15,000-€20,000, representing a sound investment.

Details
  • Energy Cost Projection: The current D1 BER rating suggests annual energy costs could range from €1,800 to €2,200 for a property of this size, considerably higher than the €800-€1,200 for a B-rated equivalent.
  • Space Efficiency: With 115.0m² and 3 bedrooms, the property offers a standard layout, with a size comparable to the median of 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms noted in the 10km radius market.
  • Hypothesis: The substantial difference in asking price compared to local sales, despite a D1 BER rating and standard configuration, indicates a premium being placed on factors beyond core property metrics, possibly related to the specific street or immediate micro-location which requires further investigation.

Amenities

Transport Connectivity: While the property is located outside Dublin, specific transport routes serving Rathmore (T12Y0YX) are not detailed in the provided data, making it difficult to assess commuter links.

Details
  • Local Facilities Assessment: The provided data does not detail specific schools, hospitals, shopping centers, or lifestyle amenities within the vicinity of Cúl Álainn, Rathmore.
  • Walkability Potential: With no specific walking routes or pedestrian infrastructure details provided for Rathmore, the walkability and access to local services remain unquantified.
  • Hypothesis: The lack of specific amenity data for Rathmore suggests that its value proposition may rely heavily on its perceived tranquility and distance from urban centers, rather than its immediate local service provision, a factor that could appeal to a niche buyer seeking seclusion over convenience.
