Dear stustin@destcan.com,
If you're arriving in Canada soon and looking for a place to rent, we have good news—Canada is gradually transitioning into a renter's market.
Asking rents and rental demand in Canada's largest cities, such as Toronto, Vancouver, and Calgary, continue to fall, resulting in lower rents and more choices for newcomers and international students.
According to the latest October rental housing report, asking rents in Toronto are now down 8.7 percent from October 2023. In Vancouver, they are down 9.1 percent year over year!
More good news - experts predict that rent prices will continue to fall well into 2025.
But if you're considering settling in a smaller city, be warned that rents in some—such as Edmonton, Alberta or St. Catharines, Ontario—continue to rise. So, it's critical to do your research before arriving in Canada.
