Listed at $2,100/mo, this rental is tracking about 26% below a wider set of rentals, though close matches were thin, so it is worth confirming with a precise CMA rather than reading it as a clear deal. The number above is my independent estimate of value, not the asking price.
There are only a few closely comparable homes right here, so this is a broad read from wider listings in the area. Ask me for a precise CMA before relying on it.

How I got there
Here is the exact math behind the estimate. I start from the closest comparable listing and adjust for the real differences (size, beds, baths) to land on a like-for-like value for this home.
- Closest comparable, listed at $3,000/mo
- Size difference −$212/mo
- Bedrooms −$150/mo
- Bathrooms −$100/mo
- Adjusts to $2,538/mo
That comparable adjusts to $2,538/mo; the $2,844/mo estimate above is the median of all 89 comparables, which is steadier than any single home.This uses comparable active listings, not leased-deal prices. Condition, finishes, and exact inclusions are my in-person call.
Its public catchment (Jesse Ketchum Junior and Senior Public School) tests around the provincial average, a steady, family-friendly draw. The full EQAO breakdown is below.
On location, this is a more car-dependent spot, so buyers here typically drive. Transit is limited nearby. Worth weighing if transit access matters to you.
Total price vs nearby homes. Fair value about $2,844/mo, median of 89 comparables.
