Worth a personal read

This home is a bit unique, so there are not enough closely comparable homes nearby for me to trust an automatic number, and I would rather give you a real one than a wrong one. Tell me you are interested and I will pull the most comparable recent sales and send you a straight answer on price, usually the same day.

On location, this is a very walkable address with everyday errands close by. BELAND at DUNSMURE is about a 1-minute walk away. Walkable, transit-friendly spots tend to hold value and widen your resale pool.

What the listing highlightsThese are claims from the listing. The only way to know for sure is to see it in person, and I am happy to book you a private showing.

  • Development potential: upside only if zoning permits, verify with the city before relying on it.
  • Corner lot: more light and frontage, sometimes at the cost of privacy.
  • Worth verifying
  • Weigh carefully

Estimates only, not a mortgage quote or pre-approval.

Actual rates, taxes, insurance, and closing costs vary by lender and property. Confirm every number with your mortgage professional.

Income potential: the basement has a separate entrance, which often supports a rentable in-law or second suite. That can lift real rent well above the figure above and help carry the mortgage. Ask us about permitted use in this area.

Thinking of this home as an investment? We will pull real comparable rents and run the full numbers with you.

Talk about the numbers

Estimates only. Rent is modelled on above-grade size and local norms, so a finished basement or second suite (a separate entrance often means one) can push real rent well above this. Taxes, fees, and vacancy vary by property, and cap rate is before financing. A starting point, not a final number, let us run the real ones with you.
