Listed at $1,049,000 with no offer date, so the ask is the seller’s number, and homes priced this way sell close to it. My read is $1.08M, typically $962K to $1.19M. Comparable closings on their own put this home around $1.15M, 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: $1.15M. 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 $1.08M, median of 126 comparables.
The market behind the math:
About 1.1 months of inventory: 7 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 $807/sqft against an area asking average of $811/sqft. Size and $/sqft both feed the estimate above.
- 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 Downsview-Roding-CFB: 38 of the 117 detached leases here lately were basement units, around $1,900 a month. That makes the suite real income, and comparable-sales math under-prices it, so read the estimate as a floor. Second-suite retrofit status is not verified. A buyer intending to rent should confirm requirements with the City of Toronto.
How this estimate is builtthe short version
I take the 126 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 $1.15M, a close match.
What the listing highlights2 points to weigh
Claims from the listing, worth confirming in person. I can book you a private showing.
- Pool: lifestyle appeal, but adds maintenance, insurance, and resale is mixed. Weigh carefully
- Hardwood floors: quality hardwood is durable and broadly desirable. Lifestyle
