The market behind the math:
About 0.3 months of inventory: 5 detached homes for sale in the area against 44 closings in the last 90 days. Under two months favours sellers, over four favours buyers.
Price per square foot: this home lists at $592/sqft against an area asking average of $478/sqft.
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 44 most comparable recent sales on their own, adjusted for size, beds, baths and lot, point to about $656K. Condition and finishes remain an in-person call.
What the listing highlights4 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
- Recent major systems: lower near-term capital costs, ask for the ages and any warranties. Value driver
- Open-concept layout: modern, sought-after flow. Lifestyle

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 63 whole-home leases in Keswick South signed at a median of $2,838 a month; adjusted to this home for size, beds and baths, and for where rents stood the month each signed, that is $2,790. 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.
