- 969 Montclair Ave sold for $852,000 in April 2025 after 4 days on the market!! This property sits on a similar 40ft x 100ft lot and is approximately 2265sqft! The comparable has a 2 car detached garage and presents itself much nicer than the subject property thus why although its interior is dated it still boasted a price in the mid 800s! The comparable is livable however would need a renovation to achieve its full potential. After a full renovation this comparable would easily sell above $1,000,000! After market adjustments, and considering our property is in need of a full renovation as well, we believe the subject property is worth $750,000 in AS IS condition.

- 110 Balmoral Ave S Sold for $835,000 in March 2025, after just 2 days on the market. This comparable property is situated on a nearly identical 40 ft by 100 ft lot and features a similar footprint of approximately 2,400 square feet, according to the listing. The property has a 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom layout, providing one fewer bedroom and one fewer bathroom compared to the subject property. It also includes a one-car garage, similar to the subject property. Cosmetically, the comparable is dated but well maintained. The property has undergone some updates, including in the kitchen and bathroom; however, it does not represent a true after-repair value (ARV). Taking these differences into account and considering the as-is condition of the subject property, we estimate its market value to be approximately $750,000.

- 60 Kensington Ave S Sold for $1,060,000 in February 2025, after only 1 day on the market. This 2.5-storey detached comparable sits on a nearly identical 40 ft by 100 ft lot and features a similar footprint of approximately 2,217 square feet, according to the listing. The comparable property has a 4+2-bedroom, 4-bathroom layout and does not include a garage. Unlike the subject property, this comparable has been thoroughly renovated throughout. However the comparable did sell in a better market in February, where the market was 3-4% higher than today. We believe that after the recommended renovations are completed and appropriate adjustments are made, the subject property would sell for around $950,000 on the MLS.
