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
Moderate Energy Efficiency: The C2 BER rating suggests the property has moderate energy efficiency, with potential annual savings of €500-€900 compared to an F or G-rated property of similar size.
Potential Upgrade Value: Upgrading the BER from C2 to a B2 rating could cost an estimated €6,000-€10,000 and potentially increase the property's value by €10,000-€15,000, presenting a sound investment.
Compact Configuration: A 120m² property with 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom is a highly unusual configuration for a detached home, potentially limiting its appeal to a very niche market of single occupants or investors seeking a unique rental opportunity.
Hypothesis: The single-bedroom configuration for a detached 120m² property suggests a potential mismatch with typical family housing demand; therefore, future value appreciation may depend more on its potential for extension or conversion into multiple units, rather than its current layout.
Amenities
Limited Direct Public Transport: There are no specific bus routes, train stations, Luas, or DART stops explicitly mentioned as serving Rathshillane, Tacumshane, suggesting a reliance on private transport.
Basic Local Services: Access to major shopping centres, educational facilities beyond primary level, and substantial healthcare facilities would likely require travel outside the immediate Tomhaggard/Tacumshane area, impacting convenience.
Rural Lifestyle Focus: The location implies a focus on natural amenities such as coastal walks or countryside exploration rather than urban conveniences like cafes, restaurants, or gyms within easy walking distance.
Hypothesis: The property's rural location, evidenced by the lack of specific public transport routes and nearby urban amenities, positions it as a lifestyle purchase appealing to those seeking tranquility, rather than a commuter-focused property, thus its value will be more closely tied to local rural appeal than connectivity metrics.
