A small discount is typical
$533Klikely sale price

Listed at $549,900. Going by how homes in Waterfront Communities C1 have actually closed against their asking prices (about 97%, 283 local closings in 90 days), the likely sale price is near $533K, if it sells. A realistic range is $502K to $577K.

Independent value check: no figure for this home. Going only by the sales record, our model lands more than 25% above the ask. At that distance an automated figure has rarely been close to the eventual sale price, so we are not printing one. The usual reason is something the record cannot show: the home's condition, or an asking price set as a starting point for offers.

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 and this building.

It never sees the asking price. The 283 most comparable recent sales on their own, adjusted for size, beds, baths and lot, point to about $869K. Condition and finishes remain an in-person call.
