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
High BER upgrade cost: Upgrading the G BER rating to a B2 would likely cost between €15,000-€20,000, potentially increasing the property's value by €25,000-€30,000, representing a significant investment for a buyer.
Lower energy costs opportunity: While costly to upgrade, a G BER rating suggests current annual energy costs could be €2,500-€3,000, compared to €1,000-€1,500 for a B2-rated property of similar size.
Compact configuration: This 120m², 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom detached property is configured for a smaller household, which may not align with the typical demand for larger family homes in areas outside of major urban centers.
Hypothesis: The significant cost and effort required to improve the G BER rating presents a substantial barrier to entry, suggesting that this property is best suited for a buyer who is either willing to undertake a major renovation or who prioritizes location over energy efficiency and is prepared for higher running costs.
Amenities
Limited direct transport: The property's rural location in Trabolgan, Whitegate means direct public transport options are scarce, with the nearest significant hub likely requiring travel to Midleton for bus services such as Bus Éireann routes serving Cork City.
Midleton hub proximity: While Trabolgan itself may lack immediate amenities, it is within a short driving distance to Midleton, which offers key services including a SuperValu, Lidl, and various local shops, as well as secondary schools like Midleton Educate Together.
Coastal lifestyle appeal: Located in Whitegate, the property benefits from proximity to coastal walks and the scenic beauty of the area, offering a distinct lifestyle appeal to those seeking outdoor activities, though immediate access to gyms or extensive parks is limited.
Hypothesis: The value proposition of this property is heavily skewed towards lifestyle and rural tranquility, with transport and amenity access being secondary considerations, suggesting that buyers prioritizing walkability or direct public transport links will likely look elsewhere, while those seeking a quieter life near the coast might find the trade-offs acceptable.
