Our Take
Team Asgarian · BrokerListed at $3,475,000. Going by how homes in Leaside and the wider GTA have actually closed against their asking prices (about 98%, 30 local closings in 90 days), the likely sale price is near $3.41M, if it sells. A realistic range is $3.20M to $3.85M.
Independent value check: $3.00M. Without looking at the asking price, our model values the home itself about 14% below the ask (homes like it typically land between $2.81M and $3.14M).
Why $3.00M. The typical detached home sold in Leaside over the past year went for about $2.38M (114 sales). What sets this one apart:
- ▲ Raises it stronglyIts tax bill, which follows the city's own assessment, is $15,216 a year; the typical home sold here pays about $11,800.
- ▲ Raises it4+1 bedrooms and 5 baths, against 3.5+1 and 4 typically.
- ▲ Raises it slightlyIt is 2,000 to 2,500 sq ft; the typical home sold here is 1,750 to 2,250.
Longer on the market than typical. 51 days on the market against about 18 for homes like it here, and asking 16% above where comparable closings put it.
Total price vs nearby homes. Likely closing about $3.41M, from 30 recent closings in this pocket.
The market behind the math:
About 0.7 months of inventory: 7 detached homes for sale in the area against 30 closings in the last 90 days. Under two months favours sellers, over four favours buyers.
Price per square foot: this home lists at $1,544/sqft against an area asking average of $1,364/sqft.
How this estimate is builtthe short version
This figure comes from a model built on about 44,000 recent GTA sales. It weighs this home’s tax assessment, size, age, location and features against what homes like it actually sold for, including sales in this neighbourhood.
It never sees the asking price. The 30 most comparable recent sales on their own, adjusted for size, beds, baths and lot, point to about $2.76M. Condition and finishes remain an in-person call.
