The move marks a significant milestone for apartment searchers in Canada, providing them with a vast array of in-depth listings of rental properties across the country. This expansion of Apartments.com, the number one rental search platform in the United States, comes at a pivotal point in Canada’s multifamily property market. As the population continues to expand and tight market conditions drive rental increases, Apartments.com provides prospective tenants with the fastest way to research and contact properties. The upgraded renter experience will also help to support property management companies, as renters are given powerful new tools to make informed decisions on which property best meets their specific needs. This means leasing agents don’t waste time chasing poor quality leads or providing important information that could have been obtained much earlier in the search. Apartments.com provides a new toolset to the Canadian real estate market, including immersive 3D tours of properties and units, comprehensive neighborhood profiles, building ratings and property reviews and architectural photography. Through this toolset, prospective renters can assess the walkability of neighborhoods, search nearby transit information, view listings in both French and English, and search neighboring restaurants, schools, and parks. Apartments.com already features a large inventory of Canadian properties, and listings are expected to increase dramatically as more property managers are added to the platform. This listing inventory and the data associated with these properties is helping Apartments.com climb to the top of search engine results in key markets, supported by a strong paid search campaign that will also drive prospective renters to the site. Apartments.com’s deep understanding of the market and in-depth analytics is backed by the industry’s largest professional research team, who shared top-line data about the Canadian market to best illustrate the current market conditions and why the Apartments.com expansion is needed: Rental demand has increased forcefully due to surging population growth as the country re-opens its borders from the pandemic, but also rising mortgage rates that are making a new home purchase less appealing and financially viable. New rental apartment construction is running at a historical high in Canada, with data showing more than 42,000 units under construction; In fact, Canada is building many more multifamily rentals than the US on a per capita basis. A significant number of Canadians are looking for new alluring properties with the annual national rental growth reaching 8.3% in Q4 2022, especially in markets like Toronto and Vancouver. “Since 2014, Apartments.com has been a trusted, easy-to-use platform for in-depth information about rental properties and we’re excited to debut this digital platform in Canada,” said Andy Florance, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of CoStar Group. “Canada is an important market and we’re excited at the prospect of providing millions of people with better listings, clear search results and a wealth of information to ensure a high-quality experience for all users.” The launch is made possible through client partnerships with all the leading managers and owners in Canada. Apartments.com is committed to creating a completely national marketplace for renters in Canada and will continue making major marketing and technology investments throughout 2023, providing the most complete picture of available inventory across all types of properties, including multifamily and single-family homes, townhomes, and condos.
