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 Discrepancy: The property's G BER rating is significantly below the market average, as 100% of comparable properties within 1km have an unknown BER, but a G rating indicates substantial room for improvement and potential future costs.
Details
- Upgrade Investment Opportunity: Upgrading from a G BER to a B2 rating would likely cost between €15,000-€25,000 but could increase the property's value by €25,000-€40,000, presenting a substantial investment opportunity for a new owner.
- Size vs. Market: At 218m², this detached house is considerably larger than the average property size of 123m² within a 1km radius over the last 180 days, offering significant space but requiring commensurate upkeep.
- Hypothesis: The combination of a very low BER rating and a high asking price presents a dual challenge; buyers may be deterred by immediate upgrade costs, potentially forcing a price reduction to reflect the necessary investment for energy efficiency, thereby impacting its desirability compared to properties with better existing ratings.
Amenities
Transport Links: The property is well-served by public transport, with Dublin Bus routes 46A, 184, and 7N passing nearby, and Sandymount DART station located approximately 1km away, facilitating easy access to the city centre.
Details
- Educational Hub: The area boasts excellent educational facilities including Muckross Park College, St. Michael's College, and the RDS is nearby, making it highly attractive for families with school-going children.
- Lifestyle and Retail: Residents can enjoy numerous cafes and restaurants along Sandymount Strand, with local shops in Sandymount village and the Merrion Shopping Centre within a short drive, offering convenience and leisure options.
- Hypothesis: The prime Sandymount location, with its inherent desirability and proximity to premium schools and coastal amenities, creates a strong baseline value that often commands a premium, yet the property's current condition (BER G) significantly dilutes this, suggesting that buyers prioritizing lifestyle and location may overlook the required investment in exchange for the area's enduring appeal.
