Limited recent transaction volume reduces trend precision. Strategy remains anchored to closed-sale distribution.
PPR closed sales · size & time adjusted · no asking prices used
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 Advantage: The 'B' BER rating offers a distinct advantage, implying lower operational energy costs compared to the 100% of properties with unknown BER ratings in a 100km radius.
Details
- Site Size Anomaly: This site is listed at 1.0m², which is an exceptionally small size for a plot of land and significantly deviates from typical site sizes in the market, raising questions about its development potential.
- Development Cost Potential: Upgrading from a 'B' BER to an 'A' rating typically costs between €4,000-€8,000 and could potentially increase property value by €7,000-€12,000, though the extremely small site size limits the scale of such investment.
- Hypothesis: The 'B' BER rating on a site of only 1.0m² is highly unusual and suggests that the energy rating might be for an existing structure or a pre-approved plan rather than the land itself, making its actual buildability and compliance the critical factors for future value.
Amenities
Limited Local Infrastructure: The property's rural location in Laughil, Cootehall, Co. Roscommon, offers limited immediate access to major transport hubs; the nearest train station is likely Carrick-on-Shannon, over 15km away, and public transport options are scarce.
Details
- Healthcare Access Concern: Access to comprehensive healthcare services would necessitate travel to larger towns like Roscommon Town (approx. 20km) or Sligo (approx. 40km) for hospitals and a wider range of clinics.
- Retail and Services Gap: Residents would likely need to travel to nearby towns for primary shopping needs; there are no specific shops or supermarkets mentioned within a 5km radius, indicating a reliance on car-based access for daily amenities.
- Hypothesis: The lack of specified amenities within a close proximity and the significant travel distances to essential services suggest that the value proposition of this site is heavily reliant on a planned future development or a specific niche buyer willing to accept rural isolation for potential future growth.
