About Toronto

Toronto is Canada's largest city, and its homes run from downtown condo towers to century-old semis and the detached streets of the former suburbs of North York, Scarborough and Etobicoke. The subway and GO Transit shape where many buyers look, and prices can change a lot from one neighbourhood to the next.

Before you rent

  • Look for a separate entrance, enough windows and ceiling height, and where the laundry is.
  • Check whether utilities are included or split as a share of the house's bills.
  • Ask whether the unit is a registered second unit with the city.
