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
High BER Rating: The B1 BER rating is strong, suggesting lower energy costs compared to properties with lower ratings; for a property of this size (481m²), annual energy costs could be approximately €1,500 - €2,000 lower than a D-rated property.
Generous Size and Configuration: With 481m² and 5 bedrooms/6 bathrooms, this property offers substantial living space, well above the median of 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms found in the 100km radius market.
Investment in Efficiency: While the BER is good, achieving an A-rating could further enhance value; upgrading from B1 to A2 could cost €5,000-€8,000 and potentially increase its market value by €10,000-€15,000, representing a solid return on investment.
Hypothesis: The B1 BER rating, while good, may be hindering its appeal to the most energy-conscious buyers who are increasingly seeking A-rated properties, potentially limiting its appeal and value appreciation compared to similar-sized properties with superior energy certifications.
Amenities
Limited Local Transport: The property's rural location in Dooagh, Aghinillard, Magheracloone, Carrickmacross means there are no specific bus routes, train stations, Luas, or DART stops directly serving this immediate area.
Distance to Services: Access to primary healthcare facilities, shopping centers like Éire Óg Shopping Centre in Carrickmacross, and educational institutions such as St. Louis' Secondary School would require significant travel, likely by private transport.
Rural Lifestyle Focus: The area is characterized by its peaceful, rural setting, with local amenities likely limited to community halls or very small convenience stores, and lifestyle amenities such as parks and restaurants requiring travel to larger towns.
Hypothesis: The lack of direct public transport links and proximity to major amenities suggests that future value appreciation will be heavily dependent on broader infrastructure development plans for County Monaghan, or a significant shift in buyer preference towards remote living with self-sufficiency.
