What makes Alderwood different
Alderwood sits in south-west Etobicoke near Sherway Gardens, the QEW and Highway 427, north of Long Branch. Its streets are dominated by modest post-war bungalows and one-and-a-half-storey homes on decent lots, with a growing number of rebuilds. That mix means two buyers compete for the same house: a family who wants to move in, and a buyer or builder who sees the lot.
An agent who knows Alderwood prices both. Frontage and depth, a separate side entrance, basement ceiling height, garage and driveway, and proximity to Sherway, schools and Long Branch GO all show up in sales.

What this means for an Alderwood seller
A 100% average sale-to-list ratio for W06 detached homes tells you well-priced houses are not being discounted heavily. But 16 sales across four neighbourhoods is a small sample, so pricing should come from the last 12 months of sales on Alderwood streets that genuinely compete with yours.

Five checks for any Alderwood agent
Use these with everyone you interview.
| What to check | How to check it yourself | Red flag |
|---|---|---|
| Registration | Search the name on RECO’s public register; confirm category and brokerage | Name not found, or brokerage differs from the business card |
| Local sales evidence | Ask for units sold in your building or pocket in the past 12 months, with addresses | “Top 1%” with no comparison group or period |
| Pricing method | Ask which three sales they would anchor your price to, and why | A number with no comparables, or a number far above every comparable |
| Representation | Ask how client versus self-represented status applies to you under TRESA | Vague answers about who they work for when both sides are involved |
| Contract terms | Read the holdover period, cancellation terms and the commission split in writing | Pressure to sign the same day |
