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?

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Above Market Rent
At $5,500/mo, this is asking above the typical 4-bedroom rent of ~$4,200/mo in Markham. 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 19 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.
Detached Home Advantages
Detached homes in Markham are increasingly scarce and valuable. You'll have no shared walls, full control over renovations, and typically stronger appreciation. Consider the lot size and potential for future additions or basement apartment income. Detached homes also offer the most flexibility for growing families.
Larger Home Realities
At 3,000 sqft, this is a substantial home. Budget approximately $400-600/month more for utilities compared to an average-sized home. Maintenance costs scale with size too - roof, HVAC, and cleaning all cost more. That said, space is a luxury that's hard to add later, and larger homes often have better resale in family-oriented neighbourhoods.
Excellent Flexibility
With 5 bedrooms, you have genuine flexibility. Beyond the master and kids' rooms, you can have a dedicated home office, guest room, hobby space, or even rental income potential. In today's work-from-home era, extra bedrooms add significant value. Properties with 5+ bedrooms are relatively rare in Markham.
Bathroom Count Matters
With 4 bathrooms, morning routines are much smoother. Multiple bathrooms significantly improve daily livability and are a major selling point for resale. Buyers consistently pay more for adequate bathroom counts - this is a strong feature.
