Our TakeTeam Asgarian · Broker
A small discount is typical
$1.46Mlikely sale price

Listed at $1,500,000. Going by how homes in Rural Aurora and the wider GTA have actually closed against their asking prices (about 98%, 10 local closings in 90 days), the likely sale price is near $1.46M, if it sells. A realistic range is $1.37M to $1.65M.

Independent value check: $1.35M. Without looking at the asking price, our model values the home itself about 10% below the ask (homes like it typically land between $1.26M and $1.41M).

Why $1.35M. The typical detached home sold in Rural Aurora over the past year went for about $1.59M (59 sales). What sets this one apart:

  • ▼ Lowers itIts tax bill, which follows the city's own assessment, is $7,088 a year; the typical home sold here pays about $8,200.
  • ▲ Raises itThe listing describes it as fully renovated or newly built.
  • ▼ Lowers itIt is 2,000 to 2,500 sq ft; the typical home sold here is 2,500 to 3,000.
  • ▼ Lowers it slightly4 bedrooms and 3 baths, against 4+1 and 4 typically.

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 $1.43M. Condition and finishes remain an in-person call.
