On neighbourhood pricing: CREA publishes the MLS® Home Price Index per real estate board, not per neighbourhood, and IndiBrick does not currently license an MLS® feed — so we publish no median price, inventory count or days-on-market for Preston specifically. For regional context, the Cambridge townhouse benchmark is $576,600 as of the May 2026 release. A licensed advisor can pull current Preston listings and recent comparables from the MLS® on request.
