Moe’s TakeTeam Asgarian · Broker
Below comparables
$2.84Mest. value

Listed at $2,638,000, this home is about 7% below comparable homes, worth a close look. The number above is my independent estimate of value, not the asking price.

Below comparable homes on total price, yet the price per square foot ($812/sqft) is in line with the area, which usually points to a smaller or more efficient layout.

Based on 9 similar homes nearby, adjusted for size, beds, and baths.Median of 9 comparable active listings, adjusted for size, beds, and baths. The city (MPAC) assessment points to about $2.49M, a bit lower.

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 $2.80M
  • Bedrooms +$30K
  • Bathrooms −$15K
  • Adjusts to $2.81M

That comparable adjusts to $2.81M; the $2.84M estimate above is the median of all 9 comparables, which is steadier than any single home.This uses comparable active listings, not sold prices. Lot, condition, and finishes are my in-person call, and I can run a full CMA with recent solds.

Its public catchment (Earl Haig Secondary School) tests around the provincial average, a steady, family-friendly draw. The full EQAO breakdown is below.

On location, it is moderately walkable, so some daily errands are within reach and for the rest you will likely drive. Finch Ave East at Maxome Ave East Side is about a 5-minute walk away.

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.

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.
