Listed at $779,000 with no offer date, so the ask is the seller’s number, and homes priced this way sell close to it. My read is $834K, typically $715K to $902K. Comparable closings on their own put this home around $961K, so the seller is asking less than the comparables suggest: either they want a quick, clean sale or something about the home is not in the comparables. Worth seeing before you offer.
Second read, from the city assessment: $851K. Similar homes sold in line with their assessments, and this one lands close to the comparable-sales figure, which is what a firm read looks like.
Total price vs nearby homes. Fair value about $834K, median of 53 comparables.
The market behind the math:
About 0.9 months of inventory: 6 detached homes for sale in the area against 20 closings in the last 90 days. Under two months favours sellers, over four favours buyers.
Price per square foot: this home lists at $866/sqft against an area asking average of $901/sqft. Size and $/sqft both feed the estimate above.
How this estimate is builtthe short version
I take the 53 most comparable recent sales nearby and adjust each one to this home for the real differences (size, beds, baths, garage, lot frontage, a ravine backing, an inground pool), then use the median, which is steadier than leaning on any single sale.
It’s grounded in recent closing prices, not asking prices. Lot, condition, and finishes are my in-person call, and the city (MPAC) assessment points to about $851K, a close match.

Read this with carewhy it’s an estimate, not an appraisal
The listing states size as a wide range, so the size adjustment is approximate and this estimate is a rough read. I can confirm exact square footage to tighten it.
Based on 53 comparable homes that sold in Downsview-Roding-CFB over the past two years, from 205 closings there.
Nothing closely matching this home is listed nearby right now, so these are the nearest detached listings on the market. Homes like this one have recently closed around $961K, which is where my estimate comes from.
Per square foot, these ask about $885/sqft; this home lists at $866/sqft. Size is part of the price story, not just the sticker.
