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 D2 BER rating suggests potential for significant energy cost increases, estimated at €1,800-€2,200 annually compared to a B-rated property. Upgrading to a B2 could cost €8,000-€12,000 and increase value by €15,000-€20,000.
Size Efficiency: With 120m² spread across 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, the property offers a reasonable 40m² per bedroom, aligning with typical bungalow configurations for family living.
Value Optimization Opportunity: The D2 BER rating presents a clear opportunity for value enhancement through energy efficiency upgrades, with potential to recoup upgrade costs and increase market appeal.
Hypothesis: The current D2 BER rating is a significant deterrent for energy-conscious buyers, and while upgrades are possible, the proximity to properties with potentially better BERs (though not explicitly provided) in a 10km radius with a median sale price of €205,000 suggests that without improvements, this property may struggle to reach higher valuations despite its size.
Amenities
Limited Local Public Transport: Based on the provided data, there are no specific bus routes, train stations, Luas or DART stops mentioned as serving Kilkelly, Ballyhaunis directly, indicating a reliance on private transport for connectivity.
Rural Amenities: Kilkelly and Ballyhaunis are situated in a rural setting, meaning access to major shopping centres, diverse retail, or a wide array of restaurants and cafes would likely require travel to larger towns like Castlebar or Galway.
Healthcare Access: While specific local clinics are not detailed, the proximity to Ballyhaunis would suggest access to local GP services and a pharmacy, with larger hospitals likely situated in towns like Castlebar or Sligo, requiring travel.
Hypothesis: The lack of detailed public transport and readily available amenities in the immediate vicinity of Shammerbaun suggests that its appeal is primarily to buyers seeking a rural lifestyle away from urban centres, and any future infrastructure development or public transport enhancement would significantly boost its attractiveness and valuation.
