Below comparables
$1,775/moest. value

Listed at $1,400/mo, this rental is about 21% below comparable rentals, worth a close look. The number above is my independent estimate of value, not the asking price.

Based on 5 similar rentals nearby, adjusted for size, beds, and baths.Median of 5 comparable active listings, adjusted for size, beds, and baths.

How I got there

Here is the exact math behind the estimate. I start from the closest comparable listing and adjust for the real differences (size, beds, baths) to land on a like-for-like value for this home.

  • Closest comparable, listed at $1,799/mo
  • Adjusts to $1,799/mo

That comparable adjusts to $1,799/mo; the $1,775/mo estimate above is the median of all 5 comparables, which is steadier than any single home.This uses comparable active listings, not leased-deal prices. Condition, finishes, and exact inclusions are my in-person call.

On schools, this address is zoned for Earl Beatty Junior and Senior 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.

On location, this is a very walkable address with everyday errands close by. Danforth Ave at Greenwood Ave is about a 1-minute walk away. Walkable, transit-friendly spots tend to hold value and widen your resale pool.
