Questions
Still unsure? Call or text 437-525-2544.
How accurate is the range?
It's a starting point, not an appraisal. It comes from the latest published average sale price for your type of home in your area, rounded, so every similar home in that area gets the same range. It can't see your street, lot, layout or condition. For a number you can list at, Ishwar compares recent sales of homes like yours.
Where do the numbers come from?
From the area figures cited on our neighbourhood guides, with the source and period shown next to every range. They're refreshed when new figures are published.
Do I have to give my email to see it?
No. Your range shows on screen as soon as you've answered the questions about the home. Leaving your details for the personalised estimate report is optional.
Do I have to sell?
No. Plenty of people just want to know where they stand. There's no obligation to list.
How is the personalised estimate worked out?
It starts from the published TRREB average for your type of home in your area, then adjusts for size, condition and recent updates by set amounts, each shown in your report. The emailed copy adds a short note in plain English. It's an automated estimate, not an appraisal, and Ishwar can confirm it against recent sales near you.
