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 Improvement Potential: Upgrading this C3 BER rating could cost €5,000-€8,000 to reach a B2 rating, potentially increasing its market value by €10,000-€15,000 and reducing annual energy costs by an estimated €500-€800 compared to its current rating.
Space Efficiency: The 120m² size of this 2-bedroom detached house is comparable to the median 3-bedroom properties sold within 10km, suggesting adequate space for its bedroom count.
Value Optimization: Given the C3 BER rating and the €168,643.39 estimated value versus a €199,000 asking price, focusing on energy efficiency upgrades could unlock the property's full market potential.
Hypothesis: While the immediate Kilmeadan area has a 100% BER unknown percentage in the provided metrics, a C3 rating places this property slightly below the average B2 or A3 ratings seen in broader regional markets, suggesting that proactive energy upgrades could significantly enhance its appeal and saleability compared to the wider market.
Amenities
Transport Connectivity: Kilmeadan is served by Bus Éireann route 307 connecting to Waterford City, and the nearest train station is Waterford Station (approx. 15km), offering limited direct public transport links.
Local Lifestyle Access: Amenities include a local Post Office, a few convenience stores, and the Kilmeadan National School, with more extensive shopping and dining options available in Dungarvan (approx. 20km) and Waterford City.
Family and Healthcare: Kilmeadan National School is within the village, and the nearest secondary school is St. Augustine's College in Dungarvan. Waterford University Hospital is approximately 15km away.
Hypothesis: The limited direct public transport options and distance to larger urban centers suggest that this property's value is primarily driven by local demand and its rural appeal rather than strong commuter connectivity, making it more attractive to those seeking a quieter lifestyle away from major urban hubs.
