16 h. ago Detached Toronto house is under $500,000 but there's a catch

Attention, brave souls of the Toronto real estate world: a detached house on Rhodes Ave. E. has magically appeared on the market for under $500,000. Yes, under.Of course, it's a bit of a mess. We're talking a bed in the dining room, particle board–covered windows, missing ceilings, and a basement that adults and children alike would be scared to enter.But according to the listing, it's got "potential", you just need to look past the chaos to see it. What was once probably the dining room. You'll definitely need a strong stomach and positive attitude to navigate the "needs TLC" part.The one and only bathroom that is missing part of the ceiling. From the photos, there's a lot of work to be done if you're going to keep the original structure. An air-conditioning unit is balanced over the stairs. But if you dream of being a handyman, a builder, or a renovator with a boat load of optimism, this could be a gre...

There are some major deals to be had for those wading into the Toronto real estate market these days — at least, when contrasted against the prices of just a few years ago — with the vast majority of the few homes switching hands now going for far under asking price.The newest reports from August 2025 show homes in the region are going for tens of thousands of dollars less than they were last year, with average prices ranging from $642,195 for a condo to $1.3 million for a standalone house — the latter especially, still nothing to scoff at, but a notable 7.5 per cent cheaper than this time last year.But regardless of how much GTA homes have depreciated in value and which areas are being the most drastically underbid, one may wonder what neighbourhoods have the cheapest properties overall in terms of dollar amount right now.Once again, local property platform Wahi has surveyed the market and has released a ...
