National Overview<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Rents Saw Fastest Month-Over-Month Increase in 2024<\/b><\/h6>\n

Average asking rents grew by 0.8% from June, which represents a reversal of the previous month’s decline of 0.8%. As we approach the end of the summer season, this increase is a return to average market rents hovering just above $2,200.<\/p>\n

\"Chart\"Chart<\/p>\n

Rents were effectively flat over the past three months, decreasing by just $1 at the national level from May to July.<\/p>\n

Apartment Rents Continue to Grow Annually, Though Remain More Affordable than Condos<\/b><\/h6>\n

Asking rents for purpose-built and condominium rental apartments increased by 0.5% month-over-month in July to an average of $2,156. Compared to a year ago, apartment rents grew by 7.4%, driven primarily by the annual increase of purpose-built rentals which were up 8.9% year-over-year to an average of $2,131 increasing by $10 from June. Condominium units increased by a much smaller percentage of 1.9% to an average of $2,334, representing a $14 increase in average rents from June.<\/p>\n

While studio rents for condominiums declined 2.8% annually in July to an average of $1,887, purpose-built rental studios remained more affordable, while also growing 13.7% to an average $1,610. Average rents for purpose-built rentals were highest for studio units at 13.7%, with three-bedroom units coming in a close second at 12.1%, followed by two-bedroom units at 9.1%, and one-bedroom units at 7.2% annually. Regardless of the large annual increases, purpose-built rental apartments maintain average rents that are $203 lower than condo units.<\/p>\n

Rentals.ca Data<\/h2>\n

The data used in this analysis is based on monthly listings from the Rentals.ca Network of Internet Listings Services (ILS). This data differs from the numbers collected and published by the Canada Mortgage Housing Corporation (CMHC).<\/i><\/p>\n

The Rentals.ca Network of ILS\u2019s data covers both the primary and secondary rental markets and includes basement apartments, rental apartments, condominium apartments, townhouses, semi-detached houses, and single-detached houses. CMHC\u2019s primary rental data only includes purpose-built rental apartments and rental townhouses. CMHC also collects data on secondary market rentals, but this is reported separately.<\/i><\/p>\n

CMHC\u2019s rental rates are based on the entire universe of purpose-built rental units (rental stock), regardless of rental tenure. CMHC rental rates are reflective of what the average household spends on rental housing and not the current market rents for vacant units. The data used in this report is based on the asking rates of available (vacant) units only and reflect on-going trends in the market. This covers a smaller sample size but is more representative of the actual market rent a prospective tenant would encounter. The Rentals.ca Network of ILS\u2019s data typically provides much higher rental rates compared to CMHC, as vacant units typically reset to market rates when not subject to rent control.<\/i><\/p>\n

The average and median rental rates in this report can also skew higher than CMHC\u2019s data for the following reasons: the inclusion of larger more expensive unit types such as single-family homes, townhouse units, and large luxury condominium units; the presence of duplicate or multiple listings at the same property and the survivorship bias where more expensive or over-priced units take longer to lease and remain in the sample longer.<\/i><\/p>\n

Properties listed for greater than $5,000 per month, and less than $500 per month are removed from the sample. Similarly, short-term rentals, single-room rentals, and furnished suites are removed from the sample when identifiable.<\/i><\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
