How this estimate is builtthe short version
This figure comes from a model built on about 44,000 recent GTA sales. It weighs this home’s tax assessment, size, age, location and features against what homes like it actually sold for, including sales in this neighbourhood and this building.
It never sees the asking price. The 5 most comparable recent sales on their own, adjusted for size, beds, baths and lot, point to about $443K. Condition and finishes remain an in-person call.

Claims from the listing, worth confirming in person. I can book you a private showing.

Read this with carewhy it’s an estimate, not an appraisal
There were not many closely comparable homes right in Mount Pleasant East, so I widened the search to the surrounding area.
Based on 3 homes sold in this building over the past two years, plus 2 nearby in Mount Pleasant East, from 25 closings in Mount Pleasant East.
Nothing closely matching this home is listed nearby right now, so these are the nearest condo apartment listings on the market. Homes like this one have recently closed around $490K, which is where my estimate comes from.
Per square foot, these ask about $762/sqft; this home lists at $999/sqft. Size is part of the price story, not just the sticker.
