The gap is what moving costs: a vacant 1-bedroom rents about 14% above what sitting tenants pay. Only 4.9% of units changed tenants in the year to the survey. Vacancy rate: 2.8%. Across the City of Toronto, average rents rose 3% over the year (same-structure sample). CMHC Rental Market Survey, October 2025.
