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 Efficiency: The SI_666 BER rating is a significant indicator of energy performance, though specific comparative data against local properties is not provided.
Size and Space: At 250m², this 5-bedroom, 5-bathroom detached property offers substantial living space, which is generally a strong market differentiator for larger family homes.
Value Optimization: While the BER rating is unknown, assuming it's not optimal, investing €8,000-€12,000 in energy efficiency upgrades could potentially increase property value by €15,000-€20,000, especially if nearby properties have higher BER ratings.
Hypothesis: Given the property's size and bedroom count, a higher BER rating could significantly enhance its appeal and market value, potentially commanding a premium of €20,000-€30,000 if upgraded to a B2 or higher, especially in a market where energy costs are a growing concern.
Amenities
Transport Connectivity: While specific routes like Dublin Bus or Luas are not applicable to Kilbrittain, Co. Cork, the nearest major transport hubs would likely be train stations in Cork city or bus services connecting Bandon to Cork.
Educational Facilities: The Bandon and Kilbrittain areas typically offer a range of primary and secondary schools, such as Scoil na Mumhan in Kilbrittain and various options in Bandon town.
Healthcare Access: Residents would likely access healthcare services via Bandon Community Hospital or clinics in Bandon, with Cork University Hospital being the tertiary referral center.
Hypothesis: The rural setting of Kilbrittain, while offering a peaceful lifestyle, implies a reliance on car ownership for accessing essential amenities, meaning transport connectivity will be a key factor for buyers from outside the immediate area, and improving local public transport links could significantly boost property desirability and value.
