Listed at $1,050,000 with no offer date, so the ask is the seller’s number, and homes priced this way sell close to it. My read is $1.03M, typically $943K to $1.22M. Comparable closings on their own put this home around $990K, which agrees with the ask, so this is a firm read.
Second read, from the city assessment: $1.17M. That is about 18% above the comparable-sales figure. When my two methods disagree this much, the answer usually sits between them and something about this home is not in the comparables (the lot, the condition, a rebuild). I would want to see it before leaning on either number.
Total price vs nearby homes. Fair value about $1.03M, median of 36 comparables.
The market behind the math:
About 1.2 months of inventory: 5 detached homes for sale in the area against 13 closings in the last 90 days. Under two months favours sellers, over four favours buyers.
Price per square foot: this home lists at $1,167/sqft against an area asking average of $954/sqft. Size and $/sqft both feed the estimate above.
How this estimate is builtthe short version
I take the 36 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 $1.17M, a bit higher.
What the listing highlights4 points to weigh
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
- Renovated / rebuilt: recent work can mean fewer upfront costs, worth confirming the scope, quality, and that permits were pulled. Value driver
- Transit / schools nearby: convenience and resale support, verify the exact distances and school catchment. Value driver
- Garden / laneway suite potential: extra-unit upside, but confirm zoning and feasibility with the city. Worth verifying

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.
There were not many closely comparable homes right in Yorkdale-Glen Park, so I widened the search to the surrounding area.
