THE QUESTION
2 red flags, 5 warnings before you bid.
Here's my honest read before you bid. The asking of €305,000 is about 33% above where the comparable sales actually land. I'm fairly confident in that, with 10 nearby sales behind it. There are 2 red flags here I wouldn't ignore — the full report names them and what to do. Don't let any “moving fast” pressure rush you — the numbers give you room to bid sensibly and walk away if it runs past what it's worth.
01One could carry a health implication worth checking — graded a red flag.
02Hundreds a year in running costs the asking price hides — graded a red flag.
03One could impact your home insurance — graded a warning.
04One is a five-figure structural risk that requires certification clearance — graded a warning.
05An amenity factor your solicitor won’t check — graded a warning.
06A comfort issue you’d only notice after moving in — graded a warning.
07A road-safety pattern that can move your motor premium — graded a warning.

"BuyerIQ was born out of the frustration of buying a home in Ireland — the information that matters is scattered across silos, and none of it is transparent at the moment you bid. We linked 775,000+ sales and 20+ public datasets so buyers see the full picture first."
