Is 3 College Square worth the asking price?
Asking above our estimated range. The asking price is 30% above our €610,000 midpoint.
If you bid, think in €549,000 to €671,000. Opening near €533,000 would be aggressive in this market. Priced above the range, so it may need negotiation and close below the asking.
Asking price divided by the 258 m² floor area. Too few comparable homes for sale nearby to rank it.
15 comparable sales within 3 km in the last two years. Estimates at this confidence land within 20% of the sale price about 74% of the time.
Nothing in the condition read moved the estimate either way.
Price trend, South-East
Change in the CSO Residential Property Price Index for South-East, to May 2026. A regional trend, not this exact house.
What it costs a month
About €3,440 a month on a 90% mortgage over 30 years at a typical current rate, plus property tax. Work it out for your own deposit.
How we estimate
We take recent sold prices from the Property Price Register, adjust each to today's money with the CSO price index, and weight them by how close and how recent they are. We blend that with a model trained on 5,000 matched sales that knows how price moves with floor area, bedrooms, BER, type and area, and we correct for condition read. Our estimate is the blend; the range is where 80% of homes like this actually sold.
Tested on sales the model had never seen: half land within 8% of the sale price, four in five within 20%. It never sees the survey. An estimate, not a valuation.

What should I check before I sign?
