This is Part 2 of “How to read a MLS listing on Realtor.ca”. We will use the same listing at 21 Melbourne Drive for our example. Has it been a month already and it’s still on the market?
Last time we left off at the listing agents Name and Brokerage.
Let’s move on to the meat and bones of the listing. Under the thumbnail photos, we have the General Description. It’s a very limited space for sales representatives to try to write all the positive features they can think of. Hence the use of Acronyms, with some easy to understand and some so puzzling it takes me a couple minutes to decipher. Let’s take a look at some of the special ones.
Premium lot – This description is very subjective. Some agents would classify corner lots or pie shaped lots or lots backing onto a school as premium. I like to reserve the premium lot description for homes that are backing onto ravines, golf course or lakes. It’s premium because it offers privacy or offers water access. In this case, it may be premium because it is O/L ravine. We will get to that soon.
$$80K Upgrades – Ask for the upgrade list from the builders.
** O/L Ravine – Ravine is across the street behind the daycare parking lot.
*Stone Front *Granite Foyer & Glamorous Hardwood *Lots Of Halogen Pot Lights *Crystal Chandelier & Wall Sconce *Stainless Steel Gas Stove – Straight forward.
B/I Dw – Built-in Dishwasher.
Tumble Marble B/S With Island – That’s B.S. standing for Back splash. So the kitchen has a marble back splash and a centre island for food preparation.
**Approx 2700S.F. – maybe less or more. Usually less.
Cvac+Equip – Central Vacuum + Equipment. Many times abbreviated as CV
Cac, Eac – Central Air Conditioning, Electronic Air Cleaner
Property section – This section describes the Parking and Utilities that service the property.
Building section – This section describes the type of house. In this case, it’s a 2-storey detached brick dwelling with A/C.
Rooms section – This section describes the layout and where each room is located. It also gives the dimensions of each room.
Heating section – This home is heated with Force Air Gas which is a gas furnace. Other variations are Electric which could be baseboard heating or an electric furnace. Another one is oil heating which are radiators.
Land size – Just repeating the lot size here.
It’s pretty simple once you get the hang of it. If you have any acronym that you come across that you don’t understand, ask me in the comments section.

Let’s kill 2 birds with 1 stone. I will explain the different parts of a MLS listing while featuring the deal of the week. This week I am featuring a 2-storey detached home at 21 Melbourne Drive in Bayview North of Richmond Hill.
At the top of page we start with the MLS number. Each listing has a MLS number that is assigned chronologically. In Toronto MLS the first letter designates the area the property belongs to . C = Central / W= West / E = East / N = North. This property is located in Richmond Hill so the MLS# starts with a N. If a listing is terminated/expired and is re-listed than a new MLS# will be assigned.
Next to the MLS# is a fairly important part of the listing, the LISTING PRICE. In this case, they are asking $595,000.

Building Type: House – This property is a house. Other types are townhouse, rowhouse and apartment.
Bedrooms: 4 – This property has 4 bedrooms. This does not include bedrooms in the basement.
Bathrooms: 4 – This property has 4 bathrooms. Note that the powder room on the main level counts as a bathroom here.
Storeys: 2 – This property has 2 levels not including the basement.
Land size: 50.00 x 98.50 FT – This is the size of the lot measured in Feet. The frontage is 50 feet wide and the depth is 98.50 feet long. Do you know where the front of this lot starts? Is it at the road or at the sidewalk? You can walk to the rear lot line and measure out 98.50 feet. But I can tell you the lot starts behind the sidewalk. A misconception is that the land in sub-divisions extends out to the road boundary. It is the same with homes that have no sidewalks, the city owns the front portion and can pave a sidewalk in the future.
Location: 21 Melbourne Drive – This is the address of the property.
On the right hand side are the names of the Real Estate Representatives (Teresa Tsui & Peter Hin-Tak Tang) that are listing the property. You do not need to know this because you will be picking up the phone and calling ME! “Hey Kirby, is this house at 21 Melbourne Drive a good buy?”
