In Corso Italia-Davenport lately, sellers have been getting about 100% of asking and homes sell in about 19 days.
There were not many closely comparable homes right in Corso Italia-Davenport, so I widened the search to the surrounding area.
Based on 54 similar homes that recently sold nearby, adjusted for size, beds, and baths.Median of 54 recently sold comparable homes — actual closing prices, not asks — adjusted for size, beds, and baths. The city (MPAC) assessment points to about $947K, a bit higher.
How I got there
Here is the exact math behind the estimate. I start from the closest comparable listing and adjust for the real differences (size, beds, baths) to land on a like-for-like value for this home.
- Closest comparable, sold for $690K
- Bedrooms −$27K
- Bathrooms −$27K
- Adjusts to $635K
That comparable adjusts to $635K; the $838K estimate above is the median of all 54 comparables, which is steadier than any single home.This estimate is grounded in actual closing prices from the last 15 months, not asking prices. Lot, condition, and finishes are still my in-person call.
The assigned public school is Oakwood Collegiate Institute. EQAO is only one input, and families here also look at French Immersion, boundary, and private options, the full breakdown is below.
Total price vs nearby homes. Fair value about $838K, median of 54 comparables.
