What the sales say

The kind of place Portlaw is

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

  • Established housing

    Almost nothing sold here since 2016 was new: 0% of sales. What changes hands is what is already there.

  • In line with Waterford

    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

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

What your money buys

What sold, and at what price

Every counted sale in Portlaw 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.

Busiest streets and estates in Portlaw

All 14 of them, counted over the whole register, so these span years rather than describing this one. A street needs five sales before it appears at all.

Recorded crime

Incidents at Portlaw Garda station

Incidents recorded by this station across the district it covers, which is wider than the town it is named after. These are counts and not rates: there is no population figure here to divide by, so they cannot be used to compare one place with another. What they can show is the direction of travel in this one place.

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.
