Toronto Rental Types

There are many rental property types you can choose from in Toronto.

Apartments for rent Toronto

Townhouses for rent Toronto

Typically less expensive than houses, townhouses for rent in Toronto offer an attractive combination of freedom and space, generally coming with your own private yard and entrance.

Basements for rent Toronto

A popular alternative for students, first-time renters and anyone else seeking relatively inexpensive rental housing are basements for rent in Toronto. Since rent prices for apartments and houses can often get too expensive, many renters seek out basements for rent in Toronto as a cheaper alternative. Homeowners often rent out their basements as a way to offset their mortgage payments. This makes it easy for renters to find relatively inexpensive basements for rent in all areas of the city.

Condos for rent Toronto

Particularly in more densely-populated areas like Downtown Toronto, condos for rent in Toronto are often the most common form of rental housing. These types of rental accommodation are perfect for those who like to be in the centre of the action, and don’t need too much space.

Pet friendly rentals in Toronto

Both dog-friendly and cat-friendly rental units are available, as well as properties where both are allowed. Keep in mind that some rental units are available, as well as properties where both are allowed. Keep in mind that some neighbourhoods are better suited to those with pets, and adjust your search accordingly.

Furnished rentals in Toronto

If you’re new to town or just haven’t had a chance to pick up furniture of your own yet, not to worry – there are plenty of furnished rentals available in Toronto. Renters seeking furnished units should search for these units using filters, but do be prepared to pay more in rent. There are pros and cons to renting furnished units compared to unfurnished units, so deciding whether it’s worth it to buy furniture when moving is a good first step.

Short term rentals in Toronto

As Canada's largest city, Toronto has plenty of work opportunities and world-class academic institutions, making it a popular place for those renting on a short-term basis. Short-term rentals in Toronto are exceedingly popular, particularly during the summer months and at the beginning of school semesters. The added flexibility is an appealing prospect for many renters, and a key factor in deciding whether or not short-term rentals are right for you.

Cheap rentals in Toronto

Toronto is famous across Canada for its high rent prices, but if you’re thoughtful in your search, it shouldn’t be too hard to find something within your budget. If you’re looking for cheap rentals in Toronto, ON, try finding a roommate or two and exploring shared housing; or search for rooms for rent. It’s worth noting that there are neighbourhoods in Toronto where rent is considerably cheaper, so exploring these options is a good idea as well.
