Our TakeTeam Asgarian · Broker
In line
$3.25Mest. value

Listed at $3,388,000 with no offer date, so the ask is the seller’s number, and homes priced this way sell close to it. My read is $3.25M, typically $2.86M to $3.61M. Comparable closings on their own put this home around $2.93M, so the ask carries a premium over the comparables: the seller is pricing in the finishes, the lot, or room to negotiate. That gap is your negotiating room.

Second read, from the city assessment: $3.39M. That is about 16% above the comparable-sales figure. When my two methods disagree this much, the answer usually sits between them and something about this home is not in the comparables (the lot, the condition, a rebuild). I would want to see it before leaning on either number.

  • Walk-out basement apartment features. A finished 1 bed walk-out basement apartment with a second kitchen. A self-contained space for extended family, guests or potential income. Basements do rent in Willowdale East: 32 of the 232 detached leases here lately were basement units, around $2,150 a month. That makes the suite real income, and comparable-sales math under-prices it, so read the estimate as a floor. Second-suite retrofit status is not verified. A buyer intending to rent should confirm requirements with the City of Toronto.
How this estimate is builtthe short version

I take the 77 most comparable recent sales nearby and adjust each one to this home for the real differences (size, beds, baths, garage, lot frontage, a ravine backing, an inground pool), 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 $3.39M, a close match.

Schools & getting aroundcatchment and transit

On schools, this address is zoned for Hollywood Public School, one of the higher-rated public schools in the area. A strong catchment tends to hold value and widen your resale pool, especially with family buyers.

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

The listing states size as a wide range, so the size adjustment is approximate and this estimate is a rough read. I can confirm exact square footage to tighten it.

Based on 77 comparable homes that sold in Willowdale East over the past two years, from 215 closings there.
