Owners valued the median home at $1,660,000 in 2021, where the median of Ontario’s towns was $695,000. There is no public record of sale prices in Ontario, which leaves the census value as the guide for Lansing-Westgate. The 2024 property assessment puts the median residential property at $557,000. Ontario still assesses at 2016 values (MPAC’s 1 January 2016 base): a figure to set against other Ontario towns, not against prices. Nobody publishes assessed values, values by property type and building permits for Lansing-Westgate alone, so this card uses the figure for the city of Toronto.
