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 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 Improvement Opportunity: Upgrading the D2 BER rating to a B2 could cost an estimated €8,000-€12,000, potentially increasing the property's value by €15,000-€20,000, making it a wise investment.
Space Efficiency: At 89m² with 3 bedrooms, this property offers a reasonable 29.67m² per bedroom, which is standard for many family homes but could be optimized with modern layout enhancements.
Value Optimization Potential: The current D2 BER rating suggests an annual energy cost of approximately €1,800-€2,200; strategic upgrades could yield annual savings of €1,000-€1,400 compared to a B-rated property.
Hypothesis: Given the property's D2 BER rating, investing in energy efficiency upgrades represents a significant value-add opportunity, particularly if similar properties within a 3km radius boast higher BER ratings and command a price premium, suggesting that enhancing the BER could unlock substantial market value beyond the direct renovation cost.
Amenities
Limited Public Transport: There are no specific bus routes, train stations, Luas or DART stops explicitly mentioned as serving Kilbegnet, Castletown, suggesting a reliance on private transport for connectivity.
Local Services Underdevelopment: Specific educational facilities, healthcare access points, shopping centers, or family services are not detailed for this immediate area, indicating a need for travel to larger towns for essential amenities.
Remote Lifestyle Focus: The lack of named local lifestyle amenities such as parks, cafes, or restaurants suggests this property is suited for those seeking a more rural and private setting rather than urban convenience.
Hypothesis: The absence of readily available public transport and specific local amenities in Kilbegnet, Castletown, points towards a market segment prioritizing rural tranquility and space, which could become a significant draw for buyers seeking an escape from urban pressures, provided essential services are accessible within a reasonable driving distance.
