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.

Local Market Notes
Property Quality
BER Rating Advantage: The B3 BER rating for this 267m² property offers a competitive advantage, likely resulting in annual energy costs of approximately €1,800-€2,200, compared to €2,800-€3,200 for similar G-rated properties.
Generous Size and Configuration: With 267m² spread across 5 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms, this property offers significantly more space than the typical offering, potentially commanding a premium in areas where larger family homes are in demand.
Value Optimization Opportunity: While the BER is B3, optimizing to a B2 rating could cost an estimated €7,000-€10,000 and potentially increase the property's market value by €12,000-€18,000, presenting a clear return on investment.
Hypothesis: The property's high number of bathrooms (6) relative to its bedrooms (5) suggests an emphasis on en-suite facilities or guest amenities; this could be a key selling point in affluent areas but might be seen as an inefficiency in markets prioritizing living space over bathrooms.
Amenities
Limited Direct Public Transport: The property's location outside Dublin suggests a reliance on private transport, as there are no specific bus routes, Luas, or DART stations mentioned as serving this exact area, potentially impacting commuter appeal.
Local Shopping and Services: While specific details are absent, the presence of a 1km radius with 12 other properties suggests a degree of local infrastructure, likely including essential shops and potentially a primary school or community center.
Potential for Lifestyle Amenities: Being outside a major urban center, the area around Castletown, Gorey, Co. Wexford, likely offers access to rural parks, walking trails, and local restaurants/cafes, appealing to those seeking a quieter lifestyle.
Hypothesis: The absence of specific transport route data for this location suggests that its appeal is more aligned with individuals prioritizing a rural or semi-rural lifestyle over direct, easy access to urban employment hubs via public transport, potentially limiting its buyer pool to a more niche market.
