How this lease stacks up against the local rental market
Estimated Monthly Budget
Things to Confirm Before Signing
· Are utilities included, or separate?
· How many parking spots are included?
· Is the landlord open to a 1-year or 2-year lease?

Utility estimates are approximate and vary by season, habits, and what the landlord includes. Always confirm inclusions with the listing agent.
Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Above Market Rent
At $3,400/mo, this is asking above the typical 2-bedroom rent of ~$2,900/mo in Forest Hill. That premium needs to be justified — newer finishes, included parking, a premium location, or utilities included. I'll help you assess whether it's worth it or whether there's room to negotiate.
Market Position
At 32 days on site, this property has had reasonable exposure. It hasn't sold immediately (which often indicates overpricing), but isn't languishing either. There's likely room for a 3-5% negotiation from asking price.
About Yonge-Eglinton
I know Yonge-Eglinton well from working with many buyers and sellers here. Each pocket has its own character - let me share what I've learned about this specific street and block. During our showing, I'll point out local amenities, school catchments, and what similar homes have sold for recently.
Lease Terms to Negotiate
Don't just focus on the monthly rent — the lease terms matter just as much. I always advise my rental clients to clarify: what's included (parking, storage, utilities), the lease length options, the landlord's policy on renewals, and whether small personalizations like painting are permitted. These details can make or break your experience over 12–24 months.
Let's Walk Through It Together
Photos can't tell you about traffic noise, natural light at different times of day, or how well the landlord maintains the property. When we view it together, I'll assess the condition of appliances, HVAC, and finishes — and flag anything that might become a headache. I'll also help you understand the lease terms before you sign anything.
