$2,268/moest. value

Listed at $2,060/mo, this rental is within the range of comparable rentals, on the lower side. The number above is my independent estimate of value, not the asking price.

In Cabbagetown-South St. James Town lately, landlords have been getting about 100% of asking and homes lease in about 14 days.

Based on 88 similar rentals that recently leased nearby, adjusted for size, beds, and baths.Median of 88 recently leased comparable homes — actual closing prices, not asks — adjusted for size, beds, and baths. The comparable range is wide here, so treat this as a rough read until I run a full CMA.

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 $2,000/mo
  • Adjusts to $2,000/mo

That comparable adjusts to $2,000/mo; the $2,268/mo estimate above is the median of all 88 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.

Its public catchment (Jesse Ketchum Junior and Senior Public School) tests around the provincial average, a steady, family-friendly draw. The full EQAO breakdown is below.

On location, this is a very walkable address with everyday errands close by. Sherbourne Street is about a 1-minute walk away. Walkable, transit-friendly spots tend to hold value and widen your resale pool.
