- ▼ Lowers it slightlyIts tax bill, which follows the city's own assessment, is $4,317 a year; the typical home sold here pays about $4,700.
Total price vs nearby homes. Fair value about $740K, learned from recent GTA sales.
The market behind the math:
About 8.3 months of inventory: 11 semi-detached homes for sale in the area against 4 closings in the last 90 days. Under two months favours sellers, over four favours buyers.
Price per square foot: this home lists at $1,354/sqft against an area asking average of $879/sqft.
- Separate-entrance basement apartment features. A finished 1 bed basement apartment with a separate entrance and a second kitchen. A self-contained space for extended family, guests or potential income. Basements do rent in Crosby: 33 of the 129 detached leases here lately were basement units, around $1,650 a month. That makes the suite real income. Second-suite retrofit status is not verified. A buyer intending to rent should confirm requirements with the City of Richmond Hill.
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 6 most comparable recent sales on their own, adjusted for size, beds, baths and lot, point to about $782K. Condition and finishes remain an in-person call.

Claims from the listing, worth confirming in person. I can book you a private showing.
- Separate entrance / basement suite: rental or in-law income potential, if it is legally registered and retrofit-compliant. Income potential
- 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
- Transit / schools nearby: convenience and resale support, verify the exact distances and school catchment. Value driver

Investor snapshot
The suite is real income here: basements rent in Crosby (33 of 129 recent detached leases were basement units, around $1,650 a month). The figure above is the whole house on one lease; rented as two units, the suite alone brings about $1,650 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 numbersThe last 8 whole-home leases in Crosby signed at a median of $1,853 a month; adjusted to this home for size, beds and baths, and for where rents stood the month each signed, that is $1,847. 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.
