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 Rating Impact: With a 'G' BER rating, this property incurs significantly higher annual energy costs, estimated at €2,500-€3,500, compared to an estimated €800-€1,200 for a B-rated property of similar size.
Upgrade Investment Opportunity: Upgrading the BER rating from 'G' to a 'C' rating could cost an estimated €15,000-€20,000 but is projected to increase the property's value by €25,000-€35,000, representing a strong return on investment.
Property Size: The 157.0m² size across 5 bedrooms offers ample living space, which is generally well-received in family-oriented or larger household markets, but needs to be assessed against local demand for such large properties.
Hypothesis: The 'G' BER rating signifies substantial immediate investment potential; focusing on insulation, heating upgrades, and potentially solar, could transform this property into a more desirable and energy-efficient asset, closing a significant value gap with better-rated homes.
Amenities
Connectivity Challenge: Teelin's rural location means direct public transport is extremely limited, with no specific bus routes or train stations serving the immediate area, requiring significant reliance on private transport for access to services.
Local Services Scarce: Specific details on local schools, healthcare facilities, or supermarkets within immediate proximity are not provided in the data, indicating a need for travel to larger towns like Carrick or Donegal Town for essential amenities.
Walkability Limited: While the immediate surroundings of Cappagh, Teelin offer natural beauty, extensive walking routes or dedicated pedestrian infrastructure are not detailed, suggesting that exploration relies more on scenic drives than accessible local footpaths.
Hypothesis: The lack of readily available public transport and limited local amenities in Teelin suggests that the property's value is primarily driven by its unique scenic location and potential for a secluded lifestyle, rather than convenience or commuter accessibility, appealing to a niche buyer.
