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
Energy Efficiency Advantage: With a B1 BER rating, this property is positioned well for energy efficiency, likely resulting in annual energy costs of approximately €1,000-€1,400, a saving of €800-€1,200 compared to a D-rated property of similar size.
Generous Space Allocation: Measuring 258m², this property offers a substantial floor area, exceeding the typical size for many properties in its immediate vicinity, providing ample living space for a family.
Value Optimization Potential: While the BER is B1, investing in further upgrades to an A-rating (e.g., enhanced insulation, solar panels) could cost €8,000-€12,000, potentially increasing property value by €15,000-€20,000 and further reducing annual energy costs by an additional €200-€400.
Hypothesis: The B1 BER rating, while good, leaves a €6,000-€10,000 investment opportunity to reach an A-rating, which could not only yield an additional €15,000-€20,000 in valuation uplift but also position the property to command a premium in a market increasingly sensitive to long-term operational costs, differentiating it from slightly lower-rated competitors.
Amenities
Connectivity Options: The area is served by Dublin Bus routes 25, 66, and 67, providing direct access to Dublin City Centre and surrounding towns, complementing the proximity to the Luas Red Line at the Saggart stop (approximately 1.5km away).
Local Conveniences: Residents have access to a variety of amenities including shops and supermarkets such as Lidl Rathcoole and Dunnes Stores, alongside healthcare facilities like Rathcoole Medical Centre and pharmacies within a short drive.
Family and Leisure Access: The location is within reach of educational institutions like Scoil Treasa Naofa and Rathcoole Boys National School, and offers leisure opportunities with Corkagh Park nearby, featuring extensive walking trails and playgrounds.
Hypothesis: The strategic positioning of Rathcoole, particularly Redgap, on the edge of Dublin's commuter belt, offers a dual benefit of relative tranquility and accessibility; however, the absence of a Luas stop within a very short walking distance (currently ~1.5km to Saggart) represents a tangible amenity gap that, if addressed by future public transport developments, could significantly enhance property values in the area.
