VÜ - North — Rental Market Data
Building Summary & Rental Market Overview
Rental market analytics and building profile as of August 31, 2026.
VÜ - North at 116 George St in Toronto's St. Lawrence neighbourhood is a 171-suite residential building completed in 2010 by Aspen Ridge Homes, currently showing three active listings for an availability rate of 1.8 percent. Recent leasing activity includes one closed lease in the trailing 30 days and one in the trailing 90 days, both at an average of $2,325 per month with a nine-day average time on market.
Active asking rents average $3,100 per month at $3.95 per square foot across 783 square feet of average suite size, compared to realized 90-day leases of $2,325 per month at $3.58 per square foot. The active asking rate per square foot is higher than the realized rate, and the current listings carry a larger footprint of 783 square feet versus the 600-square-foot average of historical closed leases. Against the St. Lawrence submarket asking benchmark of $4.51 per square foot, VÜ - North trades at a 12.4 percent discount on a rate basis, while its nominal rent of $3,100 sits above the submarket average of $2,934 because of the expanded suite sizes.
Marketing friction is modest: active listings average 17 days on market, which is four days faster than the submarket benchmark of 21 days, and the single closed lease in the trailing 30 days cleared in nine days. Across all tracked historical leases, landlords achieved a marginal premium of one dollar per month above asking, indicating balanced negotiation leverage with virtually no tenant discount. Inventory depth is thin: two-bedroom suites offer a small selection of two units, while the one-bedroom-plus-den tier is represented by a single listing, leaving renters with limited choice at either layout tier.

Active Market Insights & Questions
How has rental availability changed at VÜ - North recently?
VÜ - North has three active listings as of August 31, 2026, with asking rents ranging from $2,650 to $3,450 per month, an average of $3,100, and a median of $3,200. The average suite size is 783 square feet at an asking rate of $3.95 per square foot. Two-bedroom layouts dominate the active inventory at 66.7 percent of available units, while the remaining 33.3 percent is a single one-bedroom-plus-den suite, meaning current availability leans toward multi-bedroom executive layouts rather than compact entry-level options.
What floor plans and unit layouts are currently available at VÜ - North?
The dominant active layout at VÜ - North is the two-bedroom, with two units representing 66.7 percent of available inventory at an average asking rent of $3,325 per month across 800 square feet and a rate of $4.16 per square foot. The one-bedroom-plus-den tier accounts for the remaining 33.3 percent as a single listing at $2,650 per month, 750 square feet, and $3.53 per square foot. Renters seeking a den configuration face single-unit scarcity, while two-bedroom seekers have a small but workable selection to compare.
What is the average asking rent and $/SF by suite size at VÜ - North?
VÜ - North's active asking rents span from $2,650 to $3,450 per month, a dollar spread of $800 and a percentage spread of 30.2 percent. The median asking rent sits at $3,200 per month. The entry-level suite is a one-bedroom-plus-den at 750 square feet and $3.53 per square foot, while the peak asking unit is a two-bedroom at 850 square feet and $4.06 per square foot, reflecting both a larger footprint and a higher rate per square foot at the top of the range.
How much extra do parking spaces and dens cost at VÜ - North?
Den premiums at VÜ - North cannot be reliably quantified from the current active sample, as the one-bedroom-plus-den listing stands alone without a paired one-bedroom comparison to isolate the marginal cost of den space. Active parking stall premiums also cannot be reliably isolated due to an unreliable or insufficient paired sample, so renters should request individual parking quotes directly from the leasing office rather than relying on a standardized add-on figure.
How do asking rents at VÜ - North compare to local and municipal benchmarks?
VÜ - North's average asking rent of $3,100 per month exceeds the St. Lawrence submarket average of $2,934, but the building's asking rate of $3.95 per square foot sits 12.4 percent below the submarket benchmark of $4.51 per square foot. The higher nominal rent is driven by suite size: active units average 783 square feet, which is 132 square feet larger than the submarket implied average of 651 square feet, so renters are paying for additional living area rather than a premium rate. VÜ - North accounts for three out of 116 available listings in the St. Lawrence submarket, representing roughly 2.6 percent of total active inventory.

Recent lease transactions, absorption velocity, and the difference between landlord asking prices and actual prices agreed to by tenants at VÜ - North (Data period: For the month of August 2026).
Leased Transaction Insights & Questions
How many suites were leased at VÜ - North last month, and how fast did they rent?
VÜ - North at 116 George St closed one lease in the trailing 30 days with a 9-day DOM, well under the St. Lawrence submarket benchmark of 21 days. The 90-day window also shows a single closed lease (the same transaction), and the lifetime total stands at just two leases across the building's 171 suites. Leasing turnover is effectively paused; with only 1.8% of inventory showing availability, the limited closings reflect a near-full occupancy rather than active leasing velocity.
What is the negotiation spread between asking rents and closed lease prices at VÜ - North?
VÜ - North landlords captured a $1 per month premium (0.02% above asking) across tracked leases, translating to $12 per year in additional rental revenue. This is a limited sample of two closed leases and serves as a directional indicator only, not a broad statistical benchmark. Both transactions settled at or above the listed asking price, confirming balanced pricing leverage where tenants accepted the stated rate without meaningful pushback on price.
What are typical executed lease prices across different layouts at VÜ - North?
The 1-Bedroom layout is the sole leased product at VÜ - North, accounting for 100% of closed transactions at an average of $2,225 per month and a 32-day DOM. The two-lease sample (small sample size, directional reference only) shows a median of $2,225 per month with a P25–P75 range of $2,175 to $2,275 per month. Average suite size is 600 square feet at $3.72 per square foot. No other bedroom tiers recorded closed leases in the tracked period.
What measurable rent premium did suites with parking achieve in closed leases at VÜ - North?
VÜ - North does not have sufficient paired lease data to isolate a realized parking premium, and the metric is classified as inconclusive. Active listings at the building also show unreliable or insufficient parking samples, preventing a verified spread between bundled and unbundled rates. Tenants should confirm whether parking is included in the quoted rent or billed separately before signing a lease.
How does the lease-to-listing ratio at VÜ - North reflect current tenant demand?
VÜ - North shows a modest nominal rent increase from spring to late summer 2026, moving from $2,125 per month in May to $2,325 per month in August. The May closing (1 deal, $3.86 per square foot, 54-day DOM) reflects a compact suite of roughly 550 square feet. The August closing (1 deal, $3.58 per square foot, 9-day DOM) reflects a larger suite of approximately 650 square feet. The nominal rent increase is driven by the expanded footprint rather than a rate hike; the per-square-foot rate actually declined between the two months.

12-Month Market Dynamics & Trend Trajectory
VÜ - North realized an average lease of $2,225 per month at $3.72 per square foot, trading at a 16.3% rent discount and a 15.2% per-square-foot discount relative to the St. Lawrence submarket averages of $2,658 per month and $4.22 per square foot. Active asking rents at the building average $3,100 per month at $3.95 per square foot, which sits 5.7% above the submarket asking average of $2,934 per month but 12.4% below the submarket asking rate of $4.51 per square foot. Active suites average 783 square feet, running 132 square feet larger than the submarket implied average of 651 square feet, meaning the higher nominal asking is driven by expansive suite size rather than a per-square-foot premium. Pricing discipline at VÜ - North shows landlords holding firm: both tracked leases closed at or above asking, with an average $1 per month premium (0.02%) generating $12 per year in incremental revenue. The negotiation leverage is classified as balanced, with no tenant concessions below the listed rate recorded. At a two-lease sample size, this directional indicator suggests the building's asking prices are market-acceptable without requiring landlord-side price reductions to close transactions.

Nearby Building Rental Comparables & Price Spreads
Direct rental rate comparisons against residential properties in the immediate vicinity.
VÜ - North at 116 George St sits in a tight cluster of four nearby buildings within 130 metres, spanning completion years from 2000 to 2015. Three of the four comparables recorded active lease volume over the trailing 180 days: VÜ - South at 112 George St (0.03 km, built in 2010, 8 closed leases), Post House Condominiums at 105 George St (0.08 km, built in 2015, 12 closed leases), and The French Quarter I at 120 Lombard St (0.12 km, built in 2004, 11 closed leases). Square at 168 King St E (0.13 km, built in 2000) recorded zero closed leases in the same window and functions solely as an architectural and amenity reference rather than a live pricing benchmark. The active peer set therefore spans a 15-year construction range, with the two George Street buildings sharing VÜ - North's 2010 completion era and Post House representing the newest generation in the pocket. Against the three active comparables, the blended benchmark averages $2,816 per month in realized rent, $4.13 per square foot, and 688 square feet of interior space. VÜ - North's all-time leased average of $2,225 per month and $3.72 per square foot places the subject roughly 15 percent below the comp rate per square foot and 13 percent below the submarket leased benchmark of $4.22 per square foot. At 600 square feet of average suite size, the subject sits 88 square feet below the comp average and 132 square feet below the submarket implied asking footprint of 651 square feet. The building's value proposition in this immediate pocket is therefore anchored in a smaller interior envelope paired with a correspondingly lower per-square-foot rate, positioning it as the most accessible entry point among its George Street and Lombard Street neighbours for renters prioritizing total monthly cost over raw square footage.
Comparable Analysis & Questions
How do rental rates at VÜ - North compare to neighbouring buildings within St. Lawrence?
VÜ - North's all-time average realized lease rent of $2,225 per month sits $591 below the three-active-comp benchmark of $2,816, making it the lowest-priced building in its immediate cluster. VÜ - South at 112 George St (0.03 km, 8 closed leases) averaged $2,925 per month at $3.75 per square foot across 763 square feet, placing the subject $700 lower on a monthly basis. Post House Condominiums at 105 George St (0.08 km, 12 closed leases) averaged $2,523 per month at $4.30 per square foot across 594 square feet, a $298 gap in the subject's favour. The French Quarter I at 120 Lombard St (0.12 km, 11 closed leases) averaged $3,000 per month at $4.35 per square foot across 706 square feet, the widest spread at $775 above the subject. Square at 168 King St E (0.13 km) recorded zero closed leases over the trailing 180 days and therefore carries no realized rent benchmark against which to compare.
Does VÜ - North offer a competitive price-per-square-foot ($/SF) against local comparables?
VÜ - North leases at $3.72 per square foot across an average 600-square-foot suite, trading at a discount below every active nearby competitor on a per-square-foot basis while offering a mid-range interior footprint. Against VÜ - South (763 sq ft, $3.75/sq ft), the subject trades at a $0.03 per square foot (0.8 percent) discount and provides 163 fewer interior square feet, meaning the lower nominal rent is driven primarily by the smaller suite envelope rather than a weaker per-unit valuation. Post House Condominiums (594 sq ft, $4.30/sq ft) presents a sharper contrast: the subject trades at a $0.58 per square foot (13.5 percent) discount yet actually provides 6 more interior square feet, so the renter gains both a larger footprint and a lower rate. The French Quarter I (706 sq ft, $4.35/sq ft) shows the subject at a $0.63 per square foot (14.5 percent) discount with 106 fewer interior square feet, again blending a smaller envelope with a lower rate. In every active pairing, the subject's lower monthly rent reflects a combination of reduced per-square-foot pricing and, in two of three cases, a smaller interior footprint rather than a pure asset-valuation gap.
How do building age, amenities, and developer reputation impact rent spreads?
VÜ - North offers a 13-feature amenity suite that is broadly comparable to its George Street and Lombard Street peers but distinguishes itself with a Library & Reading Room and a Garden & Courtyard that are absent from both VÜ - South and Post House Condominiums. VÜ - South counters with a Bocci Ball Court the subject does not carry, while Post House adds a Car Wash Bay and Car Share program unavailable at 116 George St. The French Quarter I, built in 2004, provides a slimmer seven-feature package lacking the subject's Gym & Fitness Centre, Sauna & Steam Room, Media & Theatre Room, Games & Billiards Room, Dining Room & Kitchen, and Yoga Studio. Square, the zero-volume reference at 168 King St E, includes a Hot Tub & Jacuzzi that no other building in this set offers. The subject's lifestyle package—spanning aquatic wellness (sauna and steam), dedicated fitness (gym and yoga studio), remote-work infrastructure (meeting room), social gathering (party lounge, dining room, games room), and outdoor living (rooftop terrace, BBQ area, garden courtyard)—best serves young professionals and small households in the St. Lawrence pocket who want a full-service urban lifestyle without the premium per-square-foot pricing of their larger-footprint neighbours.

Data Methodology & Analytical Standards
How FastScreen aggregates public listing records, tracks active inventory, and calculates rental market metrics for VÜ - North.
Snapshot Dates & Benchmark Cadence
- Standardized Snapshot: Market metrics reflect a standardized monthly snapshot locked as of August 31, 2026.
- Benchmark Comparison Cadence: Month-over-month comparisons evaluate changes across standardized month-end reporting windows (August 2026 vs July 2026), ensuring consistent baseline periods and eliminating intra-month reporting volatility.
- Point-in-Time Daily History: Daily charts capture point-in-time active listings available on any given calendar day.
Public Data Aggregation & Thresholds
- Public Data Aggregation: FastScreen aggregates residential rental listing and completed lease transaction records from publicly available sources.
- Threshold Filtering: All listings are subject to a minimum monthly rental threshold of $1,000 to filter out standalone storage lockers, private parking spaces, and misclassified commercial entries from condominium statistics.
Calculation Formulations
- Average Asking Rent: Weighted average of active asking prices across available suites in the reporting period.
- Price Per Square Foot ($/SF): Calculated by dividing rent by square footage only for listings that provide unit dimensions (suites without stated square footage are excluded from $/SF calculations).
- Days on Market (DOM): Measures elapsed calendar days between the date a suite is first listed and either the benchmark snapshot date (for active listings) or the finalized date leased.
- Parking & Den Differentials: Average asking rent differences between suites with vs. without parking, and suites with vs. without a den.
Data Limitations & Scope
- Exclusively Public Records: Statistics are derived exclusively from publicly available rental listings and completed lease records. Private direct-to-landlord arrangements, unadvertised tenant renewals, and off-market rental agreements are not captured.
- Agreed Contract Amounts: Reported lease amounts reflect agreed contract rents and do not account for private move-in allowances or individual unit renovations that may influence pricing spreads.
