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 Rating Impact: The C1 BER rating offers moderate energy efficiency, but upgrades to a B2 rating could cost an estimated €8,000-€12,000, potentially increasing property value by €15,000-€20,000.
Details
- Spacious Configuration: With 186m² and 4 bedrooms, this property offers generous living space, positioning it well within the 'Very Large' size category.
- Value Optimization: The significant difference between the estimated value (€289,914) and asking price (€175,000) indicates substantial potential for value optimization through a strategic purchase and potential cosmetic or minor renovation investments.
- Hypothesis: Given the C1 BER rating and the relatively low asking price compared to its size and estimated value, strategic insulation and heating system upgrades could be the most cost-effective way to significantly enhance its market appeal and long-term energy cost savings, moving it towards the higher end of local market expectations for quality.
Amenities
Transport Links: While specific local bus routes are not detailed, Shanagolden is served by Bus Éireann routes 315 and 316, connecting to Limerick city and surrounding towns.
Details
- Local Facilities: The immediate vicinity of Main Street, Shanagolden, typically includes essential local services like local shops, a post office, and a credit union, with more extensive retail and healthcare options available in nearby Newcastle West or Limerick City.
- Educational Proximity: Scoil Naomh Treasa in Shanagolden serves primary education, with secondary school options available in the wider Limerick area, requiring travel for older students.
- Hypothesis: The area's connectivity is likely reliant on private transport given the absence of high-frequency public transport and rapid transit options like Luas or DART, suggesting that properties with good off-street parking and proximity to major arterial routes to Limerick City will command a premium due to commuter convenience.
