Listed at $799,500. Going by how homes in Duffin Heights and the wider GTA have actually closed against their asking prices (about 98%, 14 local closings in 90 days), the likely sale price is near $784K, if it sells. A realistic range is $739K to $848K.
Independent value check: $755K. Without looking at the asking price, our model values the home itself about 6% below the ask (homes like it typically land between $702K and $793K).

The market behind the math:
About 1.5 months of inventory: 7 condo townhouse homes for sale in the area against 14 closings in the last 90 days. Under two months favours sellers, over four favours buyers.
Price per square foot: this home lists at $421/sqft against an area asking average of $469/sqft.
- Walk-out basement. Extra light, usable space, and income potential, so the estimate is a conservative floor for 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 and this building.
It never sees the asking price. The 14 most comparable recent sales on their own, adjusted for size, beds, baths and lot, point to about $829K. Condition and finishes remain an in-person call.

- Open-concept layout: modern, sought-after flow. Lifestyle
- Hardwood floors: quality hardwood is durable and broadly desirable. Lifestyle
Read this with carewhy it’s an estimate, not an appraisal
Priced above comparable homes overall, but the price per square foot ($421/sqft) is below the area, so you are paying for extra space rather than a premium.
There were not many closely comparable homes right in Duffin Heights, so I widened the search to the surrounding area.
Based on 11 homes sold in this building over the past two years, from 125 closings in Duffin Heights.
Nothing closely matching this home is listed nearby right now, so these are the nearest condo townhouse listings on the market. Homes like this one have recently closed around $755K, which is where my estimate comes from.
Per square foot, these ask about $499/sqft; this home lists at $421/sqft. Size is part of the price story, not just the sticker.

Investor snapshot
Thinking of this home as an investment? We will pull real comparable rents and run the full numbers with you.
Talk about the numbersThe last 26 whole-home leases in Duffin Heights signed at a median of $2,920 a month; adjusted to this home for size, beds and baths, and for where rents stood the month each signed, that is $3,434. 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.
