Hey Toronto, how much have home values appreciated in your neighbourhood?
May 10th 2021
Using our AI-powered home value calculator, Instant Estimate, we’ve compared the selling prices of homes bought in the six month period prior to COVID-19 (September 2019 - February 2020) to their current Instant Estimate value (May 2021). Similar to trends seen throughout the greater GTA, City of Toronto homeowners are moving out of the downtown core in search of bigger homes and more greenspace, causing neighbourhoods on the edges of the city to see the greatest appreciation in prices.
How does your neighbourhood stack up? Here’s the breakdown of price appreciation by area and neighbourhood:

“There’s been increased and justified conversation around the skyrocketing homes prices in Toronto,” said Anshul Ruparell, Co-founder and CEO of Properly. “But what’s happening is actually the reverse of what we usually assume: that people want to be close to downtown. Old Toronto is seeing the overall lowest appreciation with the City of Toronto. Even within the city core, the more centrally located neighbourhoods that we’ve come to expect high growth from, like the Annex or Trinity Bellwoods, are not disproportionately driving the appreciation.”

About The Data
Properly compared sold prices of homes bought in each TRREB municipality in the 6 months prior to the pandemic (September 2019 - February 2020) to their current Instant Estimate selling price on May 1, 2021. For each individual home, Properly calculated the difference in sold price to the home’s estimated market value in April using its AI-driven Instant Estimate, then provided an average by municipality. Homes over $3.5M and with higher than a 0.35 error rate were removed. Municipalities with under 25 sold properties during the September 2019 - February 2020 period were also removed. Properly Instant Estimate accuracy: R-squared: ~92%, MAPE ~7%.
