Tile Floor
Listed at $1,724,000 with no offer date, so the ask is the seller’s number, and homes priced this way sell close to it. My read is $1.61M, typically $1.32M to $1.74M. Comparable closings on their own put this home around $1.33M, so the ask carries a premium over the comparables: the seller is pricing in the finishes, the lot, or room to negotiate. That gap is your negotiating room.
Second read, from the city assessment: $1.81M. That is about 36% 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 $1.61M, median of 30 comparables.
The market behind the math:
About 3 months of inventory: 12 detached homes for sale in the area against 12 closings in the last 90 days. Under two months favours sellers, over four favours buyers.
Price per square foot: this home lists at $985/sqft against an area asking average of $1,218/sqft. Size and $/sqft both feed the estimate above.
How this estimate is builtthe short version
I take the 30 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 $1.81M, a bit higher.
What the listing highlights5 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
- Recent major systems: lower near-term capital costs, ask for the ages and any warranties. Value driver
- Open-concept layout: modern, sought-after flow. Lifestyle
- 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
There were not many closely comparable homes right in Briar Hill-Belgravia, so I widened the search to the surrounding area.
Based on 30 comparable homes that sold in Briar Hill-Belgravia over the past two years, from 91 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 $1.33M, which is where my estimate comes from.
Per square foot, these ask about $876/sqft; this home lists at $985/sqft. Size is part of the price story, not just the sticker.

Affordability & Mortgage
Income needed assumes a ~32% GDS ratio; weekly is mortgage principal & interest only. Price ÷ income is the home price over the income needed. Fixed reference assumptions so listings compare on equal footing, not a lending decision.

Talk about the numbersThe last 7 whole-home leases in Briar Hill-Belgravia signed at a median of $3,227 a month; adjusted to this home for size, beds and baths, and for where rents stood the month each signed, that is $3,956. 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.
