Our TakeTeam Asgarian · Broker
No automatic estimate

This is a rare parcel: about 1.15 acres, and it backs onto green space. Comparable-sales math works on size and bedrooms, and here the lot is what is being sold, so no automatic estimate is shown.

The assigned public school is Diefenbaker Elementary School. EQAO is only one input, and families here also look at French Immersion, boundary, and private options, the full breakdown is below.

The suite is real income here: basements rent in East York (21 of 105 recent detached leases were basement units, around $1,700 a month). The figure above is the whole house on one lease; rented as two units, the suite alone brings about $1,700 a month on top of the upper floors. Permitted use is worth confirming with the city.

Thinking of this home as an investment? We will pull real comparable rents and run the full numbers with you.

Talk about the numbers

The last 7 whole-home leases in East York signed at a median of $4,045 a month; adjusted to this home for size, beds and baths, and for where rents stood the month each signed, that is $5,736. 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.
