Photo: GTD Aquitaine · Public domainSince 2001, Henry Farm has built 61% of the homes it has today; Ontario’s towns, 17%
Asked in 2021, owners gave a median value of $580,000; averaged, their homes came to $732,210. An owner’s figure, not a sale: the census of May 2021 asked what each home would fetch. No sales are published for towns in Ontario, Henry Farm included, so owners’ values are the measure.
Two ways to price a home in Henry Farm
Two sources, each set against Ontario’s towns only: provinces measure value differently, so they don’t line up across borders. 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. Henry Farm shares its assessed values, values by property type and building permits numbers with the rest of the city of Toronto.
