Listed at $1,900,000, this home is about 26% below comparable homes, worth a close look. The number above is my independent estimate of value, not the asking price.
In Willowdale West lately, sellers have been getting about 97% of asking and homes sell in about 33 days.
There were not many closely comparable homes right in Willowdale West, so I widened the search to the surrounding area.
Based on 26 similar homes that recently sold nearby, adjusted for size, beds, and baths.Median of 26 recently sold comparable homes — actual closing prices, not asks — adjusted for size, beds, and baths. The city (MPAC) assessment points to about $1.99M, lower than the comparables and worth a second look.
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 $2.45M
- Bedrooms −$60K
- Bathrooms −$30K
- Adjusts to $2.36M
That comparable adjusts to $2.36M; the $2.57M estimate above is the median of all 26 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 Willowdale Middle School. EQAO is only one input, and families here also look at French Immersion, boundary, and private options, the full breakdown is below.
Total price vs nearby homes. Fair value about $2.57M, median of 26 comparables.
What the listing highlightsThese are claims from the listing. The only way to know for sure is to see it in person, and I am happy to book you a private showing.
- Renovated / rebuilt: recent work can mean fewer upfront costs, worth confirming the scope, quality, and that permits were pulled. Value driver
- Tall ceilings: they transform how a home feels, worth confirming the actual heights room to room. Worth verifying
- Sold as-is / needs work: budget for renovation, the price should reflect the condition. Weigh carefully
- Corner lot: more light and frontage, sometimes at the cost of privacy. Weigh carefully

Rates and programs change often. We will connect you with a trusted mortgage professional and build a plan that fits your budget and goals.
Estimates only, not a mortgage quote or pre-approval.

Actual rates, taxes, insurance, and closing costs vary by lender and property. Confirm every number with your mortgage professional.
Investor snapshot
Income potential: the basement has a separate entrance, which often supports a rentable in-law or second suite. That can lift real rent well above the figure above and help carry the mortgage. Ask us about permitted use in this area.
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.
