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 Opportunity: Improving the D BER rating to a B2 could cost an estimated €8,000-€12,000, potentially adding €15,000-€20,000 to the property's value and significantly reducing annual energy costs.
Energy Efficiency Savings: While D-rated, annual energy costs for a property of this size are estimated at €1,800-€2,200; upgrading to a B-rating could reduce these to €800-€1,200 annually, yielding substantial savings.
Bathroom Deficiency: The property's single bathroom falls below the median of two bathrooms observed in recent sales within a 10km radius, potentially impacting its appeal and value compared to homes with more facilities.
Hypothesis: Despite its current BER D rating and single bathroom, the property's 115m² size and detached nature in a village setting present a prime renovation opportunity for buyers seeking to add value and tailor a home to their modern energy efficiency and lifestyle needs.
Amenities
Commuter Access: Located near the N4 national primary road, this property offers convenient access to the national road network, and the nearest train station in Carrick-on-Shannon (approximately 8km away) provides rail links on the Dublin-Sligo line.
Family-Friendly Locale: The property is served by Drumsna National School within walking distance and is within reasonable commuting distance of secondary schools in Carrick-on-Shannon, such as Carrick-on-Shannon Community School, providing essential family infrastructure.
Village Convenience: Residents benefit from local amenities in Drumsna including Duignan's Bar & Shop, and are within a short drive to major supermarkets like Tesco and SuperValu in Carrick-on-Shannon, with primary healthcare services also available locally.
Hypothesis: The increasing appeal of rural living, coupled with Drumsna's specific blend of local village amenities and reasonable proximity to a larger town like Carrick-on-Shannon, will continue to drive demand from families and remote workers seeking a balanced lifestyle.
