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
B3 BER Advantage: The B3 BER rating offers an advantage, likely resulting in annual energy costs of €1,300-€1,700 compared to €1,800-€2,400 for a D-rated property of similar size.
Spacious Living: With 261m² and 4 bedrooms, this property offers more space than the median of 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms found in the 100km radius market, potentially commanding a premium.
Upgrade Potential: While the B3 rating is good, achieving an A-rating could cost an estimated €10,000-€15,000 and potentially add €20,000-€25,000 to the property's value, representing a strong return on investment.
Hypothesis: The property's substantial size and B3 BER rating position it well within the current market, but a focused investment in further energy efficiency upgrades, targeting an A-rating, could unlock a significant value uplift and attract a wider pool of environmentally conscious buyers.
Amenities
Limited Local Transport: The absence of specific bus routes, train stations, Luas, or DART stops mentioned for Gurteen, Ballymote suggests potential reliance on private transport for connectivity.
Basic Local Services: While specific shops and restaurants are not detailed, the rural location implies limited immediate access to a wide array of retail and dining options, likely requiring travel to larger towns.
Rural Lifestyle Focus: The location in Doon West, Gurteen, suggests a focus on rural living, with potential for quiet surroundings but likely fewer immediate family services like multiple childcare facilities or easily accessible parks.
Hypothesis: The property's appeal is likely to be strongest for buyers prioritizing a rural lifestyle and willing to accept longer travel times for amenities, as the immediate vicinity offers limited public transport and extensive retail or cultural facilities.
