Above comparables
$668Kest. value

Listed at $899,999, and my independent estimate is about 35% above what comparable homes suggest.

In Waterfront Communities C8 lately, sellers get about 96% of asking; homes sell in ~33 days.

List price
$637KGreat deal$900KOverpriced

Total price vs nearby homes. Fair value about $668K, median of 9 comparables.

How this estimate is builtthe short version

I take the 9 most comparable recent sales nearby and adjust each one to this home for the real differences (size, beds, baths, garage, and standout features), then use the median, which is steadier than leaning on any single sale.

It’s grounded in recent closing prices, not asking prices. Lot, condition, and finishes are my in-person call, and the city (MPAC) assessment points to about $720K, a close match.

What the listing highlights3 points to weigh

Claims from the listing, worth confirming in person. I can 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
  • Primary suite: a key comfort and resale feature. Lifestyle
  • Open-concept layout: modern, sought-after flow. Lifestyle
Schools & getting aroundcatchment and transit

The assigned public school is Market Lane Junior and Senior Public School. EQAO is only one input, and families here also look at French Immersion, boundary, and private options, the full breakdown is below.

Read this with carewhy it’s an estimate, not an appraisal

Priced above comparable homes overall, but the price per square foot ($819/sqft) is below the area, so you are paying for extra space rather than a premium.

There were not many closely comparable homes right in Waterfront Communities C8, so I widened the search to the surrounding area.

Based on 9 comparable homes that recently sold nearby.

Talk about the numbers

Estimates 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.
