Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does this home’s value compare to recent sales on the street?
Based on available data, the home last sold between $550k-$600k in September 2021. Its current assessed value of $580k is significantly higher than the street average of ~$494k, indicating its perceived premium status.

2. Is the lot size a major feature?
Yes. At 7,554 sqft, the lot is about 20% larger than the average on Wisteria Way and over 40% larger than the Riverbend neighborhood average, offering exceptional outdoor space potential.

3. What does it mean that the home is “newer” than most?
Built in 2008, the home likely has more modern building materials, systems, and layout preferences than the Winnipeg citywide average home (built in 1966) or even the Riverbend average (1993). This can mean fewer immediate updates and potentially better energy efficiency.

4. Are the property taxes likely to be high?
Given its assessed value is in the top 10% citywide and top 1% in the neighborhood, the property taxes will be correspondingly higher than for an average Winnipeg home. The exact amount can be calculated using the City of Winnipeg’s mill rate.

5. How can I verify the exact historical sale price?
The site provides sold price ranges for general reference. To obtain the exact, verified sale price and history, you must request a manual lookup via email from the service, as they do not display MLS data directly.
