Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Fairly Priced Rental
At $2,800/mo, this is in line with typical 2-bedroom rents in High Park (~$2,900/mo). The rent itself may be firm, but there's often room to negotiate on lease terms — move-in date, appliance inclusions, or parking.
Negotiation Opportunity
At 108 days on site, this property has exceeded the typical selling timeline for High Park. 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.
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.
