Our TakeTeam Asgarian · Broker
A small discount is typical
$1.28Mlikely sale price

Listed at $1,299,900. Going by how homes in Morningside and the wider GTA have actually closed against their asking prices (about 99%, 10 local closings in 90 days), the likely sale price is near $1.28M, if it sells. A realistic range is $1.20M to $1.44M.

Independent value check: no figure for this home. Going only by the sales record, our model lands more than 25% below 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: a rebuild, a second unit, or a lot or setting unlike the homes around it.

Longer on the market than typical. 65 days on the market against about 24 for homes like it here, and asking 28% above where comparable closings put it.

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 10 most comparable recent sales on their own, adjusted for size, beds, baths and lot, point to about $878K. Condition and finishes remain an in-person call.

What the listing highlights5 points to weigh

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

  • Finished basement: added living space, worth checking ceiling height and that the work was permitted. Value driver
  • Renovated / rebuilt: recent work can mean fewer upfront costs, worth confirming the scope, quality, and that permits were pulled. Value driver
  • Open-concept layout: modern, sought-after flow. Lifestyle
  • 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

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

Priced above comparable homes overall, but the price per square foot ($743/sqft) is in line with the area, so you are paying for extra space rather than a premium.

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

Based on 10 comparable homes that sold in Morningside over the past two years, from 82 closings there.

What sellers nearby are askingCurrently listed nearby in Morningside · asking prices

Nothing closely matching this home is listed nearby right now, so these are the nearest detached listings on the market. Homes like this one have recently closed around $1.01M, which is where my estimate comes from.

Per square foot, these ask about $593/sqft; this home lists at $743/sqft. Size is part of the price story, not just the sticker.
