New Listing on a busy road

71 Fairfield Road is new to the market today at $2.395 million. After this house had been extensively remodelled in 2009 its owners put it up for sale at $2.850. It was a nice enough house, albeit with a slightly awkward layout, but that was a ridiculous price even for an Ogilvy listing, and it finally sold 18 months later for $2.175. Those buyers, in turn sold it to the present owners in 2020 for $1.9 million.

Has it really increased in value 26% since then? Well, it’s Rob Johnson of Brown Harris’s listing, and he’s usually pretty much spot-on on these matters, so it probably has; and, after all, 2020 was definitely a time to grab bargains.
