Listed at $649,000, this home is right in line with comparable homes. The number above is my independent estimate of value, not the asking price.
In Waterfront Communities C1 lately, sellers have been getting about 97% of asking and homes sell in about 32 days.
Based on 96 similar homes that recently sold nearby, adjusted for size, beds, and baths.Median of 96 recently sold comparable homes — actual closing prices, not asks — adjusted for size, beds, and baths. The city (MPAC) assessment points to about $599K, a close match.
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, sold for $510K
- Bathrooms +$15K
- Adjusts to $525K
That comparable adjusts to $525K; the $652K estimate above is the median of all 96 comparables, which is steadier than any single home.This estimate is grounded in actual closing prices from the last 15 months, not asking prices. Lot, condition, and finishes are still my in-person call.
The assigned public school is Ogden Junior Public School. EQAO is only one input, and families here also look at French Immersion, boundary, and private options, the full breakdown is below.
On location, this is a very walkable address with everyday errands close by. St. Patrick Street is about a 2-minute walk away. Walkable, transit-friendly spots tend to hold value and widen your resale pool.

Investor snapshot
Thinking of this home as an investment? We will pull real comparable rents and run the full numbers with you.
Talk about the numbersEstimates only. Rent is modelled on above-grade size and local norms, so a finished basement or second suite (a separate entrance often means one) can push real rent well above this. Taxes, fees, and vacancy vary by property, and cap rate is before financing. A starting point, not a final number, let us run the real ones with you.
