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 C1 Rating: A C1 BER rating implies moderate energy efficiency; upgrading to a B2 could cost €8,000-€12,000 and potentially increase the property value by €15,000-€20,000.
Compact Size: At 100m², the property is smaller than the median sale price within 1km (€691,250) which suggests larger properties are commanding higher prices in the immediate vicinity.
Value Optimization: While the BER rating is adequate, focusing on energy efficiency upgrades could yield a return on investment, especially if similar properties in the area have higher ratings, allowing for a premium of €1,000-€1,400 annually on energy savings compared to D-rated homes.
Hypothesis: The C1 BER rating, while not poor, represents a key opportunity for value enhancement; by investing in targeted energy upgrades, the property could significantly outperform its current valuation and attract buyers seeking lower running costs, especially given that properties with superior BER ratings often achieve a 5-10% premium in this market.

Connectivity to Cork City: Glounthaune is served by Bus Eireann routes 261, which provides direct access to Cork City Centre, facilitating commuter convenience.

Hypothesis: The strategic location of Glounthaune, offering a balance of tranquil living and accessibility to Cork City via Bus Eireann route 261, positions it as an increasingly desirable area for those seeking a suburban lifestyle with convenient urban access, likely to drive sustained property value growth.
