Listed at $1,800/mo, this rental is about 31% below comparable rentals, worth a close look. The number above is my independent estimate of value, not the asking price.
In Waterfront Communities C8 lately, landlords have been getting about 99% of asking and homes lease in about 14 days.
There were not many closely comparable homes right in Waterfront Communities C8, so I widened the search to the surrounding area.
Based on 67 similar rentals that recently leased nearby, adjusted for size, beds, and baths.Median of 67 recently leased comparable homes — actual closing prices, not asks — adjusted for size, beds, and baths.
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, leased for $2,200/mo
- Bedrooms −$150/mo
- Adjusts to $2,050/mo
That comparable adjusts to $2,050/mo; the $2,601/mo estimate above is the median of all 67 comparables, which is steadier than any single home.This estimate is grounded in actual lease prices from the last 15 months, not asking prices. Condition, finishes, and exact inclusions are still my in-person call.
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.
Total price vs nearby homes. Fair value about $2,601/mo, median of 67 comparables.
