Our TakeTeam Asgarian · Broker
In line
$1.48Mest. value

Listed at $1,599,000, and my independent estimate is within the range of comparable homes, on the higher side.

In Westminster-Branson lately, sellers get about 97% of asking; homes sell in ~32 days.

List price
$1.25MGreat deal$1.95MOverpriced

Total price vs nearby homes. Fair value about $1.48M, median of 10 comparables.

  • Ravine / green setting. This home backs onto Rockford Park, a premium that comparable-sales math under-prices, so read the estimate as a floor.
How this estimate is builtthe short version

I take the 10 most comparable recent sales nearby and adjust each one to this home for the real differences (size, beds, baths, garage, and standout features), 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 $1.15M, lower than the comparables and worth a second look.

What the listing highlights5 points to weigh

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

  • Renovated / rebuilt: recent work can mean fewer upfront costs, worth confirming the scope, quality, and that permits were pulled. Value driver
  • Recent major systems: lower near-term capital costs, ask for the ages and any warranties. Value driver
  • Upscale kitchen: a genuine value driver, verify the appliances, stone, and finishes in person. Value driver
  • Hardwood floors: quality hardwood is durable and broadly desirable. Lifestyle
  • Transit / schools nearby: convenience and resale support, verify the exact distances and school catchment. Value driver
Schools & getting aroundcatchment and transit

The assigned public school is Rockford Public School. EQAO is only one input, and families here also look at French Immersion, boundary, and private options, the full breakdown is below.

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

There were not many closely comparable homes right in Westminster-Branson, so I widened the search to the surrounding area.

Estimates only, not a mortgage quote or pre-approval.

Actual rates, taxes, insurance, and closing costs vary by lender and property. Confirm every number with your mortgage professional.

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.

Thinking of this home as an investment? We will pull real comparable rents and run the full numbers with you.

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.
