What the sales say

The kind of place Galway City is

Read out of the sales themselves. None of this is a description of what Galway City is like to live in, which we have no way of knowing. It is what changed hands here.

  • Houses much of a muchness

    The dearer end of the middle half of sales went for 1.36 times the cheaper end, which is a narrow band. Places built as estates look like this, because the houses really are much the same.

  • In line with Galway

    The median here sat within a quarter of the county median in 2025, so it tracks the county rather than standing apart from it.

  • Rarely comes up

    16 sales counted in 2025. At that rate, waiting for the right house here means waiting.

What sold, and at what price

Every counted sale in Galway City since 2023, sorted into bands. Recent years only, deliberately: over the whole register nearly half of everywhere looks cheap, because of what houses cost in 2012. The question this answers is whether anything at all sells for what you have now.

How the place was worked out

The register has no town column. It has an address, and the place is read out of it: the county is stripped off and the part left at the end is the locality. Addresses that end in a street name rather than a place are not counted towards anywhere.

A place appears here only where at least forty sales were recorded in it, and a figure is printed for a year only where at least ten sales sat behind it.
