Inherited a property in Ontario?

When real estate becomes part of an estate, knowing its value at the correct valuation date can be important for estate administration, beneficiary distribution, and tax reporting.

A formal appraisal is different from a real estate agent's CMA and provides a documented valuation prepared for the specific purpose.

If you're handling an estate, understanding the appraisal requirements early can help avoid complications later.

📍 IPS provides probate and estate appraisal services across Ontario.

Think your commercial property assessment may be too high?

For office, retail, and industrial properties, challenging an MPAC assessment requires more than simply disagreeing with the assessed value. Income data, comparable lease evidence, and an independent appraisal can all play an important role in supporting an appeal.

With strict deadlines and specific evidence requirements, preparation matters.

📍 IPS provides appraisal services for commercial property owners across Toronto and the GTA.

Your mortgage is renewing, but your lender may still ask for a fresh property appraisal.

This can happen when you switch lenders, own a non standard property, or when market conditions have changed since your last valuation. And when an appraisal is required, the result can affect your lending options and approval.

Knowing what to expect can help you prepare before the appraisal takes place.

📍 Serving homeowners and mortgage brokers across Toronto and the GTA.

An appraisal and a home inspection may happen around the same time, but they answer two completely different questions.

Appraisal: What is the property worth?

Home inspection: What is the condition of the property?

One helps you understand value. The other helps you understand potential problems.

Knowing the difference can help you make a more informed property decision.

How much does a property appraisal actually cost?

The answer depends on the property and the purpose of the appraisal. Residential, commercial, multiplex, estate, and capital gains appraisals can all have different fees.

Property complexity, comparable availability, effective date, and turnaround time can also affect the cost.

At IPS, every engagement starts with a clear written fee quote before work begins.

Your investment property value can change long before you think about selling.

A fresh appraisal can be important when you are:

• Renewing a mortgage
• Planning to sell
• Releasing equity
• Changing the property's use
• Managing estate or tax matters

For GTA investors, keeping your property values current can help you make better financial decisions.

Buying a pre-construction condo is one thing. Knowing what it will actually be worth when it reaches closing is another.

For investors and lenders, an appraisal provides an independent view of current or prospective market value and helps bring the numbers closer to market reality.

With changing condo conditions across Toronto, understanding value before closing can make a big difference.

When business partners decide to part ways, the value of the real estate they own together can become one of the biggest questions.

An independent appraisal provides an objective view of the property's market value and can give both sides a stronger foundation for negotiating a buyout or resolving a dispute.

For partnership buyouts, the right valuation can make the next step much clearer.

A heritage home is more than a beautiful piece of Toronto history. Its designation can also affect how the property is valued.

Preservation requirements, permitted renovations, restoration costs, location, and buyer demand all need to be considered when determining market value. That is why heritage properties require a more specialized appraisal approach than a standard home.

Selling a Toronto rental condo can come with more tax considerations than many investors expect.

Capital gains are only part of the picture. If you claimed CCA, recapture can also have a significant impact when you sell. Land and building allocation, previous changes in use, and eligible improvements can also affect the final calculation.

Knowing the numbers before you sell can help you and your accountant plan with greater confidence.
