What this means if you are looking here
Houses sit at the top of what Renfrew-Collingwood costs — about 198% above the entry point here. That gap is worth sitting with before you start looking. Some buyers stretch for it and are glad they did; others find that the same money in a neighbouring area buys more space than the address is worth to them. There is no right answer, only the one that fits how you actually live.
It is down 10.8% over the year against 7% for the region, so Renfrew-Collingwood has softened faster than the wider market. It actually ticked up 2.6% in the last month. I would rather tell you that plainly than let you find it out later. For a buyer, $1.49M is a better entry than it would have been a year ago. For an owner thinking about selling, it means pricing to today rather than to what a neighbour achieved eighteen months ago.
With a house, a good part of what you are buying is the lot, and lots are where the differences hide: frontage, lane access, what the zoning would let you or a future owner build. Two Renfrew-Collingwood homes listed near $1.49M on the same street can have quite different long-term value for reasons that never appear in a listing photo. A Walk Score of 82 on detached stock is unusual — most areas trade walkability away as lots get larger, and this one has not.
If you are weighing a house in Renfrew-Collingwood against somewhere else, or wondering what yours would fetch against this $1.49M benchmark, just ask me. No obligation and no sales pitch — I would rather you had a real number and a straight answer than a good feeling about an index.

What is a benchmark price, and is it the same as an appraisal?
No — a benchmark is not an appraisal. The MLS® Home Price Index models a typical property for an area and property type, which makes it a good way to track a market over time, but it values no particular home. For that you need a comparative market analysis on the actual property, which Aparna provides at no cost.
Want the number for an actual property?
A benchmark tracks a market; it does not value a home. A comparative market analysis looks at the specific property — its size, condition, outlook, and what comparable homes actually sold for. Aparna Kapur prepares one at no cost and no obligation.
