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
Significant BER Challenge: With a G BER rating, this 61m² property is at the lowest end of energy efficiency, incurring estimated annual energy costs of €2,500-€3,500, making it less attractive without significant upgrades.
Details
- Value-Add Energy Upgrade: A strategic BER upgrade from G to a more efficient B2 rating could cost an estimated €20,000-€35,000, but is projected to increase the property's value by €15,000-€25,000 and reduce annual energy bills by €1,600-€2,000, making it a sound investment.
- Compact for Purpose: The property's compact 61m² footprint with 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom aligns with the needs of small households or individuals, though it is smaller than the median 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom properties sold within a 5km radius.
- Hypothesis: The combination of a G BER rating and compact size, contrasting with larger, more energy-efficient local sales, positions this property as an ideal candidate for a comprehensive renovation, where significant investment in thermal upgrades could unlock substantial equity gains and broader market appeal.
Amenities
Rural Transport Dependency: Located in Frenchpark, Co. Roscommon, public transport is limited; while regional Bus Éireann routes may offer connections to larger towns, significant reliance on private vehicles is necessary for daily commuting and access to most services.
Details
- Local Village Access: Essential daily amenities like a local shop, post office, and a primary school such as Frenchpark National School are typically found within Frenchpark village, requiring a short drive or walk from Clerragh, Fairymount.
- Regional Healthcare & Services: More comprehensive healthcare facilities, including GP practices, pharmacies, and Roscommon University Hospital, along with broader shopping and retail options, are primarily located in larger towns such as Boyle (approximately 20 minutes drive) or Roscommon Town, necessitating travel.
- Hypothesis: The property's tranquil rural setting, typical of Co. Roscommon, appeals primarily to buyers seeking a peaceful lifestyle and valuing personal space over immediate proximity to a wide array of urban-style amenities, making it a niche offering for those comfortable with car dependency.
