A median of $500,000 and a mean of $553,698: that is how owners valued their homes in 2021. No sales are published for towns in Ontario, Stipeley included, so owners’ values are the measure. For 2024, the median assessed value of a residential property is $353,000. Ontario’s assessments are still on MPAC’s values of 1 January 2016, far below today’s prices, so they compare only with other Ontario towns. Stipeley doesn’t get its own assessed values, values by property type and building permits figures; the ones here come from the city of Hamilton.
Two ways to price a home in Stipeley
Every figure here is compared within the province, against Ontario’s towns, since each province assesses on its own terms. A census value is an owner’s guess at a selling price in May 2021, and prices have moved since.
