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 C2 - Potential for Improvement: With a C2 BER rating, the property could potentially benefit from upgrades. While specific cost data for this location isn't provided, typical upgrades from C to B could involve insulation and window improvements costing €5,000-€10,000, potentially increasing value by €8,000-€15,000.
Details
- Standard Size for Area: The 115m² bungalow aligns with the typical 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom configuration seen in many properties, providing adequate space for a family without being exceptionally large or small for its type.
- Value Optimization Opportunity: The property's current estimated value of €278,016 is lower than the asking price, suggesting that minor improvements, such as enhancing the BER rating or updating key areas, could help close this gap and optimize its market position.
- Hypothesis: Given the C2 BER rating, a targeted investment in energy efficiency upgrades could unlock further value and appeal in this market, particularly if competitors in the immediate vicinity have superior ratings, thereby shifting the property from a standard offering to a more desirable one for cost-conscious buyers.
Amenities
Limited Public Transport: The property's rural location in Foulksmills means direct access to major public transport is limited, with no specific bus routes, train stations, Luas, or DART stops explicitly serving Horetown North.
Details
- Local Services Availability: While specific names are not provided for this immediate vicinity, rural Wexford typically offers essential services such as local shops, primary schools, and healthcare clinics within a reasonable driving distance.
- Property Type Dominance: The data shows a 100% unknown property type percentage within 100km, meaning specific local property types like bungalows are not detailed in this general market metric, making direct amenity comparisons difficult.
- Hypothesis: The lack of direct public transport links and specific amenity data for Horetown North suggests that residents likely rely on private vehicles for most daily needs, positioning properties in this area as more suitable for those seeking a quieter, rural lifestyle over urban convenience.
