Property for Lease in Hamilton Overview

Hamilton Real Estate for Rent

Hamilton is mainly populated by individuals and couples, with families and elders less prevalent. The city is the most diversified in the world, as seen by the proliferation of cultural centre neighbourhoods. The Hamilton housing market is seeing a substantial increase in rental house prices this year, most notably in detached homes and condominiums. Across the province, the narrative is similar. Given its closeness to Toronto and its thriving economy, it is not surprising that Hamilton and its surroundings have followed suit. The Hamilton real estate market for rent in Ontario continues to show signs of growth.

Hamilton's Average Rental Price by Property Size

Rent prices in Hamilton climbed by 3.8% on average in apartment-style buildings in the first half of 2022, slower than the 5.4% rise reported in 2021. According to Passarelli, the slow rise is attributed to the fact that 85% of all rental apartments qualify for the provinces' rent freeze. However, rents in the city continue to rise faster than salaries, making it difficult for middle-income renters to find affordable housing. The studio apartment's average annual price trend for rent in Hamilton has increased by 3% in the last month to CAD 1,700. The average rent price for a 1-bedroom apartment has risen by 4% to CAD 2,099, while the rent for a 2-bedroom apartment has risen by 2% to CAD 2,645.

Hamilton's Best Neighbourhood for Rentals

Hamilton has a wide range of eateries, including fine dining and dive bars. The arts and cultural scene are vibrant and renowned, driven by institutions such as the Art Gallery of Hamilton. There are also several excellent theatre groups in the neighbourhood. The Royal Botanical Gardens, another important cultural landmark in Hamilton, is worth visiting. There are many venues to get a drink and watch a game for people who are more into sports. McMaster University, Mohawk College, and Redeemer University College are Hamilton's universities. The Bruce Trail highlights various waterfalls and pathways that outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate. Durand, Ancaster, Bartonville, East End, Kirkendall, Westdale, Corktown, Stoney Creek, Stinson, Gibson, Dundas, and Hamilton Mountain are some of the finest Hamilton neighbourhoods for property rental.

Average Furnished and Unfurnished Hamilton Rentals

Moving is stressful, and if you come from a long distance, you may want to rent a furnished rental apartment rather than bring your own. Furnished apartments for rent in Hamilton are often more expensive than unfurnished rentals, but the convenience may be worth the additional money. Inquire with the landlord about the quality of the furniture, then take some time to see for yourself.

Hamilton Rental Average Price History

Hamilton is 8% more expensive than the national standard. The average rent price history in Hamilton by house size:

Property Size	Average Rental Price in CAD
Studio	CAD 1,000
One-bedroom	CAD 1,550
Two-bedroom	CAD 1,840
Three-bedroom	CAD 2,255

Hamilton's Best Areas / Communities for Rental Properties

Because Hamilton is amidst a massive demographic transition, there are two groups: lifers and fresh blood. Lifers are usually elderly and have lived in Hamilton for many years, if not their whole lives. They are familiar with the area and feel at ease in their hometown. The fresh blood comes from young people from other metropolitan areas, i.e. Toronto. They are well-educated and often work in creative professions. Many young families or couples wanting to have kids in the near future want to settle into a home and safe area with excellent schools, parks, and close shopping. The list has some of the best communities for you to live in.

In contrast, the average cost of office space on Toronto's Bay Street is CAD 68.91 per square foot, more than four times the cost of Hamilton, which has access to the same markets, labour, and supply chain. Companies in Hamilton may invest in other essential activities such as research and development and talent acquisition with less money spent on real estate. Grants and tax credits are available for innovation, and financial incentives for downtown revitalization and brownfield cleanup are offered.

Rental Demographics of Hamilton

One reason rents have lately risen at a faster pace is that the number of renters in Hamilton rose to 68,545 families during the year 2016. Because young people have the greatest percentage of residing in rental properties of any age group, the substantial rise of Millennials living in Hamilton significantly influences the entire renter population. 87% of young people aged 15-24 rent, and 51% of young adults aged 24-34 rent, compared to a citywide average of 32% for all age groups. Despite having a more significant number of renters than Ontario, the percentage of rentals in housing completion continues to trail below the provincial average, showing that rental needs are still falling short of demand. In 2019, there were 2.1 new households for every new completion in Hamilton, a raw difference of about 1,700 more families that were not accommodated by the housing market and a higher ratio than the provincial average.
