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 Upgrade Potential: The property's BER D rating offers an investment opportunity; upgrading to a B2 could cost an estimated €8,000-€12,000 but potentially increase its market value by €15,000-€20,000.
Energy Cost Implications: With its BER D rating, annual energy costs for this 167m² property are estimated at €1,800-€2,200, which is considerably higher than the €800-€1,200 typically associated with more efficient B-rated homes of similar size.
Optimal Size Configuration: At 167m² with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, this property is categorized as 'Very Large' and aligns perfectly with the median 3-bed, 2-bath configuration observed in both the 10km and 20km radius markets, offering spacious accommodation.
Hypothesis: The widespread absence of BER ratings in sold property data across all provided radii (100% unknown) suggests that energy efficiency, while important, might not be the primary driver of value or purchase decisions in this specific rural market segment, potentially making BER upgrades a longer-term return on investment.
Amenities
Rural Transport Connectivity: Transport connectivity relies primarily on local road networks, with access to Bus Éireann services from nearby Clifden (approximately 15-20 minutes drive), offering connections via Route 419 to Galway City, as there are no direct train, Luas, or DART services in Claddaghduff.
Local Lifestyle & Education: The property offers a rural lifestyle with access to Claddaghduff National School (primary) and local shops like Walsh's Shop, while more extensive amenities, including Clifden Community School, SuperValu, pharmacies, and restaurants such as Olivers Seafood Bar, are located within a short drive to Clifden.
Scenic Walkability & Family Services: The immediate area provides opportunities for scenic walks, particularly around Omey Island, though dedicated pedestrian infrastructure is limited beyond the village center; local childcare facilities support families within the Claddaghduff community.
Hypothesis: Given the property's remote coastal location and rural amenity profile, its valuation is likely to be significantly influenced by its appeal as a tranquil lifestyle or holiday home, rather than by traditional urban-centric factors such as extensive public transport links or proximity to major employment hubs.
