Ground-floor unit that feels more like a bungalow. One of the standout features is the massive 700 sq ft private patio wrapping around the east and south sides, perfect for relaxing or entertaining outdoors. The unit has been renovated with new cabinets and flooring, and the layout just works. It's a 2-bedroom, 2-bath setup that's great for a busy couple or anyone looking for a bit more space and quiet. The open-concept design with 10-foot ceilings makes it feel bright and spacious, something you don't come across often. The primary bedroom is generously sized with its own ensuite, plus there's no shortage of closet space and storage throughout. There's also a locker just down the hall on the same level, which makes things really convenient. 1 Parking spot is included as well. The building has everything you'd want-gym, pool, hot tub, party/meeting room, and 24-hour concierge/security. Location-wise, it's super convenient-just minutes to the 401, GO station, schools, shopping at Pickering Town Centre, and everyday spots like GoodLife Fitness, Starbucks, and Tim Hortons.

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?
· Are pets and small renovations (paint, hooks) allowed?
· When was the last rent increase, if there is a prior tenant?
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
Competitive Rent
At $2,400/mo, this is priced below the typical 2-bedroom rent of ~$2,900/mo in Pickering. Well-priced rentals move fast — worth acting on. That said, let's check what's driving the lower ask: landlord flexibility, lease term restrictions, or simply a motivated landlord.
Negotiation Opportunity
At 57 days on site, this property has exceeded the typical selling timeline for Pickering. This creates leverage for buyers. The seller may be motivated by carrying costs, life circumstances, or previous deals falling through. I'd recommend a strategic offer below asking with terms that favour you.
Condo Considerations
For condos, I always review the status certificate thoroughly. Key things I look for: reserve fund health (should be well-funded), any upcoming special assessments, rules that might affect your lifestyle (pets, rentals, renovations), and the corporation's financial statements. We'll want to verify the monthly fees and what they include.
Efficient Living
At 700 sqft, this is a more compact space. The upside: lower utility bills, less maintenance, and easier cleaning. Consider how you'll use the space - built-in storage, multi-functional furniture, and good organization become important. Great for singles, couples, or those who prefer a low-maintenance lifestyle.
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.
