Listed at $1,849,900 with no offer date, so the ask is the seller’s number, and homes priced this way sell close to it. My read is $1.81M, typically $1.60M to $2.03M. Comparable closings on their own put this home around $1.73M, which agrees with the ask, so this is a firm read.
Second read, from the city assessment: $2.10M. That is about 21% 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.
Total price vs nearby homes. Fair value about $1.81M, median of 5 comparables.
The market behind the math:
About 2 months of inventory: 6 townhouse homes for sale in the area against 9 closings in the last 90 days. Under two months favours sellers, over four favours buyers.
Price per square foot: this home lists at $1,057/sqft against an area asking average of $956/sqft. Size and $/sqft both feed the estimate above.
How this estimate is builtthe short version
I take the 5 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 $2.10M, a bit higher.

Investor snapshot
Thinking of this home as an investment? We will pull real comparable rents and run the full numbers with you.
Talk about the numbersThe last 5 whole-home leases in Cabbagetown-South St. James Town signed at a median of $5,795 a month; adjusted to this home for size, beds and baths, and for where rents stood the month each signed, that is $5,695. The gross yield above is on the asking price, before taxes and upkeep; the cap rate is after them. A finished basement or second suite can push real rent above it. Taxes, fees, and vacancy vary by property, and cap rate is before financing.
