Rooms
Listed at $714,900, about 20% below our estimate of $892K (homes like it typically land between $836K and $935K).
Total price vs nearby homes. Fair value about $892K, learned from recent GTA sales.
The market behind the math:
Price per square foot: this home lists at $550/sqft against an area asking average of $589/sqft.
- Walk-out basement. Extra light, usable space, and income potential, so the estimate is a conservative floor for it.
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 20 most comparable recent sales on their own, adjusted for size, beds, baths and lot, point to about $760K. Condition and finishes remain an in-person call.

Read this with carewhy it’s an estimate, not an appraisal
There were not many closely comparable homes right in Vincent, so I widened the search to the surrounding area.
Based on 20 comparable homes that sold in Vincent over the past two years, from 39 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 $892K, which is where my estimate comes from.
Per square foot, these ask about $794/sqft; this home lists at $550/sqft. Size is part of the price story, not just the sticker.

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.

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.
Investor snapshot
About the suite: in Vincent basements rarely rent out (1 of 9 recent detached leases were basement units), so the figure above does not count it as income. Buyers here use a suite as family or nanny space.
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 6 whole-home leases in Vincent signed at a median of $3,000 a month; adjusted to this home for size, beds and baths, and for where rents stood the month each signed, that is $2,598. 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.
