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 D1 Upgrade Potential: Upgrading from a D1 BER rating to a B2 could cost approximately €10,000-€15,000 and is estimated to increase the property's value by €18,000-€25,000, offering a solid return on investment.
Details
- Average Size for Area: At 120m², this bungalow is of a standard size for a 3-bedroom property, but could feel constrained if the layout is not optimized for space efficiency.
- Value Optimization Opportunity: The current D1 BER rating, with estimated annual energy costs of €1,800-€2,200, presents a clear opportunity for value enhancement through energy efficiency upgrades, which would improve marketability and reduce future running costs.
- Hypothesis: Given the D1 BER rating and the potential for significant value uplift through energy upgrades, a buyer prioritizing long-term cost savings and property value appreciation could invest in insulation, heating system, and window replacements to achieve a B1/B2 rating, potentially recouping over 100% of the upgrade cost through increased saleability and reduced utility bills within 5 years.
Amenities
Limited Direct Connectivity: The absence of specific bus routes, train stations, or Luas stops within a readily accessible radius for this location A92EY95 indicates a reliance on private transport for commuting.
Details
- Local Services Accessibility: While specific amenities are not detailed, Dunleer generally offers essential services like primary schools (e.g., St. Finian's National School), local shops, and healthcare facilities, catering to daily needs.
- Walkability Challenges: The property's location outside of the main town centre implies that walkability for daily errands and access to a wider range of lifestyle amenities may be limited, requiring vehicular transport for most activities.
- Hypothesis: The property's 'outside Dublin' classification and lack of specific public transport links suggest it appeals to a buyer seeking a quieter, rural lifestyle who prioritizes car dependency, rather than a commuter seeking direct access to urban employment centers or extensive public transport networks.
