Listed at $1,435,000, which is about 10% below what comparable homes suggest.
The usual discount does not apply here. Homes listed this far under their comparable sales often close at or above the ask, so no closing range is shown.
Total price vs nearby homes. Fair value about $1.59M, learned from recent GTA sales.
The market behind the math:
About 0.8 months of inventory: 7 detached homes for sale in the area against 28 closings in the last 90 days. Under two months favours sellers, over four favours buyers.
Price per square foot: this home lists at $638/sqft against an area asking average of $812/sqft. Size and $/sqft both feed the estimate above.
- Corner lot. Two street frontages: more to landscape, shovel and mow, and more exposure to traffic, wind and headlights at night. Buyers price that against an interior lot on the same street, so I read this one on the cautious side and confirm the setting in person.
How this estimate is builtthe short version
This figure comes from a model built on about 44,000 recent GTA sales. It weighs this home’s tax assessment, size, age, location and features against what homes like it actually sold for, including sales in this neighbourhood.
It never sees the asking price. The 9 most comparable recent sales on their own, adjusted for size, beds, baths and lot, point to about $1.46M. Condition and finishes remain an in-person call.
What the listing highlights3 points to weigh
Claims from the listing, worth confirming in person. I can book you a private showing.
- Tall ceilings: they transform how a home feels, worth confirming the actual heights room to room. Worth verifying
- Open-concept layout: modern, sought-after flow. Lifestyle
- Hardwood floors: quality hardwood is durable and broadly desirable. Lifestyle

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.

Investor snapshot
Thinking of this home as an investment? We will pull real comparable rents and run the full numbers with you.
Talk about the numbersThe last 8 whole-home leases in Islington-City Centre West signed at a median of $5,315 a month; adjusted to this home for size, beds and baths, and for where rents stood the month each signed, that is $5,346. 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.
