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
Strong Energy Efficiency: With a B3 BER rating, this bungalow offers excellent energy efficiency, potentially leading to annual energy cost savings of €1,000-€1,400 compared to a typical D-rated property of similar size, which usually incurs €1,800-€2,200 annually.
Details
- Generous Living Space: This 160m² bungalow is categorised as "Very Large," providing substantial living space significantly exceeding the needs of the typical 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom property found in the 5km radius.
- Optimal Configuration: The property's 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms align perfectly with the median configuration of sold properties in the 5km radius over the past 30 and 180 days (median beds 3, median baths 2 or 1.5), indicating a highly desirable and market-aligned layout.
- Hypothesis: The combination of a strong B3 BER and a "Very Large" 160m² footprint suggests that this property appeals to buyers prioritizing long-term energy savings and spacious living, potentially commanding a higher premium than standard-sized homes in the area despite the higher asking price relative to nearby sales.
