Property Overview

This unit at 1501-15 Kennedy Street is a compact, 840 sqft condo in Winnipeg's Broadway-Assiniboine neighbourhood, built in 1980. Its primary appeal lies in its location and relative affordability within the broader market. The data suggests it ranks highly for its living space compared to other units on its street and in the immediate area, offering more room than most comparable listings. However, its assessed value is notably low, placing it in the bottom tier city-wide, which indicates very modest property taxes but may also reflect the building's age, condition, or specific market factors.

It would likely suit a first-time buyer, an investor, or someone seeking a low-cost entry into the downtown-adjacent area who prioritizes location and interior space over modern building amenities or finishes. A thoughtful buyer might see potential in its larger-than-average floor plan for the price point, viewing it as a canvas for updates. The 2019 sale price of $150k provides a recent benchmark, but the current low assessment suggests a significant gap a buyer would need to understand.


Frequently Asked Questions

1. Why is the assessed value so much lower than the last sale price?
Assessed values for tax purposes don't always align directly with market sale prices. A low assessment can result from the unit's specific condition, the building's age and common elements, or the methodology used by the assessor. It typically translates to lower property taxes.

2. What does the ranking data actually mean?
The rankings compare this unit against others on the same street, in the neighbourhood, and across Winnipeg. For example, its living area is in the top 1% on its street, meaning it's larger than almost all other listed units there. Conversely, its assessed value ranking is low city-wide, placing it in the bottom 4%.

3. Are there any major concerns with a building from 1980?
Buildings of this age may require significant capital investments. A prudent step would be to review the condo corporation's reserve fund study and minutes to understand the financial health of the building and any planned major repairs (e.g., roof, windows, plumbing, elevator).

4. What is the Broadway-Assiniboine neighbourhood like?
This central area offers walkable access to downtown Winnipeg, The Forks, and the Legislature grounds. It's a mix of residential, commercial, and institutional buildings. The appeal is urban convenience, but it may come with typical city noise and activity.

5. There's no mention of parking or amenities. What should I assume?
The listing shows "Garage: None." It is safest to assume the unit has no dedicated parking, which is common in older downtown condo buildings. You should confirm if street permits or paid lot options are available. The lack of listed amenities (pool, etc.) suggests a no-frills building focused on essential living space.
