Online estimates are a starting point, but they cannot see your renovated kitchen, your finished basement, the busy road behind you or the extra parking spot. A comparative market analysis prepared by a REALTOR® weighs those details against homes that actually sold, so you get a range you can plan around.
Meshesha's evaluations are free and come with no obligation to list. Some homeowners want a number for refinancing conversations, estate planning or a separation. Others are thinking about selling in a year and want to know what improvements would help. Whatever the reason, you get the same careful work.
An evaluation is an opinion of market value, not an appraisal. Lenders often require a separate appraisal from an accredited appraiser. Meshesha is clear about the difference and will explain what his analysis can and cannot be used for.

- Homeowners curious about current value
- Sellers planning a listing in the next year

Typical Timeline
Most evaluations are ready within one to three business days once Meshesha has the property details. Unusual properties, such as large lots, multiplexes or rural acreage, may take longer because good comparables are harder to find.
Typical Costs, Explained Generally
The evaluation is free and comes with no obligation. You do not need to sign a listing agreement to receive one.
How selling works in Ontario
Sellers sign a written listing agreement with a brokerage that sets out the list price, the term, compensation for the listing brokerage and any amount offered to a cooperating buyer brokerage, along with showing and marketing instructions. All compensation is negotiable.
Typical seller costs include brokerage compensation plus HST, legal fees, mortgage discharge fees and any prepayment penalty from your lender, and the preparation you choose to do such as cleaning, painting, minor repairs and staging. Use the seller net proceeds calculator for a rough estimate.
Once an offer is accepted, buyers usually have conditions such as financing or inspection. After those are waived or fulfilled, the deal is firm and your lawyer prepares for closing.
Documents You May Need
- Property address and type

Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Relying only on automated online estimates
- Comparing your home to the highest sale on the street without adjusting

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the home evaluation really free?
Yes. There is no cost and no obligation. Meshesha offers it so homeowners can make informed decisions, whether or not they decide to sell.
Do you need to see the inside of my home?
It helps, especially if you have renovated, but a video call or photos can work too. Interior condition is often the biggest difference between comparable homes.
How accurate is a comparative market analysis?
It is an informed opinion of value based on available sales. Markets move and every buyer is different, so the analysis is a range rather than a promise of a sale price.
Can I use the evaluation for my lender?
Lenders usually require an appraisal from an accredited appraiser. The evaluation is useful for your own planning, and Meshesha can explain when an appraisal is needed.
