Toronto’s red-hot condo rental market is
showing no signs of cooling down
 Over the past two years, rents have risen by
more than 10%, equal to an additional $170 per
month or 23 cents per square foot on average.
 Demand for renting condos has heated up with
less first-time buyers. Rental transactions have
exceeded resale volumes in the condo market since
mid-2012
 Investors are increasingly choosing to hold their
units rather than flip them for sale.
Press Release: 2013 by Urbanation Canada’s leading condominium market research company.
