Union - Building A — Rental Market Data
Building Summary & Rental Market Overview
Rental market analytics and building profile as of August 31, 2026.
Union – Building A at 1709 Bur Oak Ave in Markham East is a 35-suite residential building completed in 2022 by Aspen Ridge Homes, currently showing one active listing out of 26 available units across the submarket, representing a 2.9 percent availability rate. Leasing velocity remains brisk: two closed leases in the trailing 30 days at an average of $2,500 per month with a 19-day average time on market, and three leases over the past 90 days averaging $2,417 per month with a 13-day average DOM.
The single active two-bedroom suite asks $2,750 per month on 850 square feet, translating to $3.24 per square foot. That rate per square foot sits above the building's realized lease average of $3.08 per square foot over the trailing year, even though the nominal monthly figure is modest. The active footprint of 850 square feet is also larger than the 783-square-foot average across historical leases, meaning current inventory skews toward a more spacious layout compared to past closed deals. Against the Markham East submarket asking benchmark of $3.28 per square foot, Union – Building A's active rate is 1.2 percent below the broader market.
Marketing friction appears contained: the active listing has been on market for 12 days, well under the submarket average of 28 days, and the 30-day closed-lease cohort averaged 19 days. Across all three tracked historical leases, tenants secured an average concession of $83 per month, or 3.14 percent below asking, with two-thirds of deals closing under the initial list price. Inventory depth is minimal at this point—one two-bedroom unit represents the entire active slate, leaving no multi-unit choice within the building and directing renters to the wider Markham East pool for alternative layouts.

Active Market Insights & Questions
How has rental availability changed at Union - Building A recently?
Union – Building A carries one active listing as of August 31, 2026, asking $2,750 per month with both the average and median rent at that single figure. The suite spans 850 square feet at $3.24 per square foot, and the 100 percent layout share is a two-bedroom configuration. With only one unit on the market, inventory is neither compact entry-level nor multi-bedroom executive in character; it is a single mid-size two-bedroom offering that sits above the building's historical lease average of 783 square feet.
What floor plans and unit layouts are currently available at Union - Building A?
The sole active layout at Union – Building A is a two-bedroom unit, accounting for 100 percent of current inventory with one listing at $2,750 per month. That single suite measures 850 square feet and carries a rate of $3.24 per square foot. No one-bedroom, studio, or three-bedroom tiers are currently available, so renters seeking alternative bedroom counts must look to other Markham East buildings.
What is the average asking rent and $/SF by suite size at Union - Building A?
Union – Building A's active pricing spread is effectively zero: the minimum and maximum asking rents are both $2,750 per month, producing a $0 dollar spread and 0 percent spread across the single available unit. The entry-level and peak suite are the same two-bedroom, 850-square-foot layout priced at $3.24 per square foot. With only one listing, there is no internal price gradient to navigate, and the median asking rent of $2,750 per month is the sole data point for budgeting purposes.
How much extra do parking spaces and dens cost at Union - Building A?
Union – Building A does not have a quantified den premium or square-footage delta for active listings, as the single available unit is a standard two-bedroom without a separate den configuration. Marginal cost per square foot for additional den space therefore cannot be calculated from current inventory. Parking stall costs at this building also cannot be reliably isolated from the available data; the paired sample is insufficient to quote a verified monthly premium, and no figure should be assumed without direct confirmation from the leasing office.
How do asking rents at Union - Building A compare to local and municipal benchmarks?
Union – Building A's active asking rent of $2,750 per month and $3.24 per square foot compare to the Markham East submarket averages of $2,465 per month and $3.28 per square foot, placing the building 1.2 percent below the submarket rate per square foot. The nominal rent is $285 above the submarket asking average, but that gap is explained by the active suite's 850-square-foot footprint versus the smaller units typically driving submarket averages. Union – Building A holds one out of 26 active listings in Markham East, a 3.8 percent share of the submarket's available inventory.

Leased Transaction Insights & Questions
How many suites were leased at Union - Building A last month, and how fast did they rent?
Union – Building A at 1709 Bur Oak Ave closed two leases in the trailing 30 days with an average DOM of 19, compared to a 90-day average DOM of 13 and a Markham East submarket benchmark of 28 days. Over the full tracked period, three leases have closed lifetime, all within the past 90 days, meaning leasing activity has been recent and concentrated rather than spread across multiple quarters. The 30-day DOM of 19 sits above the 90-day average of 13, suggesting a modest slowdown in absorption velocity in the most recent window, though both figures remain well under the submarket's 28-day norm.
What is the negotiation spread between asking rents and closed lease prices at Union - Building A?
Union – Building A tenants negotiated an average discount of $83 per month (3.14% below asking), translating to $996 in annual savings per unit across tracked leases. Two of three closed leases (66.7%) settled under the listed asking price, confirming tenant-favorable leverage in this small sample. Landlords at this 35-suite Markham East property are conceding roughly three percent off their initial pricing to close deals, a pattern consistent with moderate vacancy pressure in the submarket.
What are typical executed lease prices across different layouts at Union - Building A?
The 1-Bedroom + Den layout dominates Union – Building A's lease activity with two closings averaging $2,250 per month and a 13-day DOM. This small sample (two deals) serves as a directional reference only, not a broad statistical benchmark. The 2-Bedroom tier recorded one closed lease at $2,750 per month with a 14-day DOM; this is an individual single transaction and should not be read as a market-wide rate. The 1-Bed + Den suites averaged 750 square feet at $3.00 per square foot, while the single 2-Bedroom closed at 850 square feet and $3.24 per square foot.
What measurable rent premium did suites with parking achieve in closed leases at Union - Building A?
Union – Building A does not have sufficient paired lease data to isolate a reliable parking premium, and the active listing's parking figure is flagged as an unreliable outlier. No verified monthly parking surcharge can be quoted for either leased or active units at this property. Tenants should confirm parking terms directly with the landlord or property manager, as bundled versus unbundled arrangements are not consistently documented in the tracked dataset.
How does the lease-to-listing ratio at Union - Building A reflect current tenant demand?
Union – Building A shows a modest upward rent trajectory from July to August 2026, with average asking rents climbing from $2,250 to $2,500 per month. In July, one lease closed at $2,250 per month, $3.00 per square foot, and a 2-day DOM. In August, two leases closed at an average of $2,500 per month, $3.12 per square foot, and a 19-day DOM. The nominal rent increase of $250 reflects a shift toward larger 2-Bedroom suites rather than a like-for-like rate hike on identical footprints, as the August cohort includes the 850-square-foot 2-Bedroom at $3.24 per square foot.

Analyze withdrawn listings, tenant price resistance, and subsequent re-listing discount trends at Union - Building A (Data period: For the month of August 2026).
De-Listed Market Analysis & Questions
How many listings de-listed at Union - Building A, and what was their re-listing price compared to previous asking?
Union – Building A logged one delisted unit out of three lifetime leases, a delisted-to-leased ratio of 33.3% (or 50% against the trailing 30-day volume of two). The single delisting was an expired listing; no terminated or suspended units appear in the dataset. At a 35-suite property, one expired listing is a minor friction signal rather than a systemic vacancy problem, but it does indicate that at least one unit failed to convert within its marketing window.
How do asking prices on de-listed suites compare to executed leases and active listings at Union - Building A?
The single delisted unit at Union – Building A asked $2,750 per month, which is $250 per month (10%) above the realized lease average of $2,500 per month. At $3.24 per square foot for 850 square feet, the delisted asking rate sat at the same per-square-foot level as the one closed 2-Bedroom lease, confirming the spread is driven by overpricing relative to what tenants actually paid rather than a footprint mismatch. This unit was overpriced relative to market-clearing levels in the Markham East submarket.
What market friction causes rental listings to stall or de-list at Union - Building A?
The delisted unit at Union – Building A sat on the market for an average of 60 days, compared to a realized lease DOM of 13 days lifetime (or 19 days in the trailing 30 days). That 47-day excess over the lifetime benchmark translates to roughly 1.5 months of lost rent at $2,750 per month—approximately $4,292 in foregone revenue—plus ongoing condo maintenance fees during the unrented period. Even against the more recent 30-day DOM of 19, the 41-day excess still represents over a month of carrying cost before the listing expired.

12-Month Market Dynamics & Trend Trajectory
Union – Building A's realized average rent of $2,417 per month sits 2% above the Markham East submarket lease average of $2,372, while its $3.08 per square foot rate runs 5.5% below the submarket's $3.26 per square foot benchmark. The property therefore commands a modest nominal rent premium but delivers a more competitive rate per square foot, a combination that reflects its 783-square-foot average suite size sitting above the submarket norm. On pricing discipline, two of three tracked leases (66.7%) closed below asking, with tenants capturing an average $83 per month (3.14%) discount worth $996 in annual savings. This tenant-favorable concession pattern indicates landlords at Union – Building A are willing to push back on initial pricing to secure occupancy, a signal of moderate competitive pressure in the Markham East rental market rather than a landlord's pricing monopoly.

Nearby Building Rental Comparables & Price Spreads
Direct rental rate comparisons against residential properties in the immediate vicinity.
Union - Building A at 1709 Bur Oak Ave sits in a tightly clustered Markham East pocket where all four direct comparables recorded active lease volume over the trailing 180 days. The closest peer, Union - Building B at 1 Climo Ln (0.05 km, completed 2022), closed 5 leases; Art House Condos at 9582 Markham Rd (0.11 km, completed 2017) logged 12; The Mark at 9560 Markham Rd (0.19 km, completed 2019) recorded 15; and The Upper Village - South Tower at 9500 Markham Rd (0.37 km, completed 2013) closed 9. The cohort spans three distinct construction eras—2013, 2017–2019, and 2022—giving the subject a same-generation twin in Union - Building B while competing against older, amenity-dense stock from the mid-2010s and late-2010s. Against the four-comp benchmark of $2,355 average realized rent, $3.35 per square foot, and 722 average square feet, Union - Building A's realized lease profile of $2,417 per month at $3.08 per square foot across 783 square feet positions it as a larger-footprint, lower-rate-per-square-foot asset. The subject's 783-square-foot average suite exceeds the comp mean by 61 square feet, yet its per-square-foot rate trails the benchmark by $0.27. This combination—more interior space at a more competitive unit rate—distinguishes the building from both the compact, premium-per-square-foot Art House Condos and The Mark, and from the older, larger Upper Village suites that carry a higher nominal rent despite a lower per-square-foot figure.
Comparable Analysis & Questions
How do rental rates at Union - Building A compare to neighbouring buildings within Markham East?
Union - Building A's average realized lease rent of $2,417 per month runs $62 above the four-comp benchmark of $2,355, driven primarily by its larger suite footprint rather than a per-unit valuation premium. Union - Building B (1 Climo Ln, 0.05 km, 5 closed leases) averaged $2,400 per month at $3.26 per square foot across 762 square feet, placing the subject $17 higher on a nominal basis. Art House Condos (9582 Markham Rd, 0.11 km, 12 closed leases) realized $2,141 per month at $3.46 per square foot over 623 square feet, meaning the subject commands $276 more in monthly rent. The Mark (9560 Markham Rd, 0.19 km, 15 closed leases) closed at $2,353 per month, $3.53 per square foot, and 675 square feet, with the subject $64 higher. The Upper Village - South Tower (9500 Markham Rd, 0.37 km, 9 closed leases) averaged $2,525 per month at $3.15 per square foot across 829 square feet, making the subject $108 lower in nominal rent.
Does Union - Building A offer a competitive price-per-square-foot ($/SF) against local comparables?
Union - Building A leases at $3.08 per square foot across an average 783-square-foot suite, a combination that undercuts every active competitor on a per-square-foot basis while delivering more interior space than three of the four peers. Against Union - Building B, the subject trades at a $0.18 per square foot (5.5 percent) discount while providing 21 more interior square feet, so the $17 higher nominal rent reflects the additional footprint rather than a rate premium. Versus Art House Condos, the subject offers a $0.38 per square foot (11.0 percent) discount and 160 more square feet; the $276 higher monthly rent is entirely a function of the larger suite, not a per-unit valuation advantage. The Mark presents the steepest per-square-foot gap at a $0.45 per square foot (12.7 percent) discount with 108 additional square feet, again making the $64 nominal premium a space-driven outcome. The Upper Village - South Tower is the one comp where the subject provides 46 fewer interior square feet and trades at a $0.07 per square foot (2.2 percent) discount, resulting in a $108 lower monthly rent that tracks directly with the smaller footprint.
How do building age, amenities, and developer reputation impact rent spreads?
Union - Building A offers a single common facility—Concierge & Security—making it a no-frills, low-maintenance residential building that appeals to cost-conscious renters prioritizing suite size and per-square-foot value over lifestyle programming. Union - Building B, its same-generation twin at 1 Climo Ln, likewise provides zero common amenities, confirming a deliberate lean-operating model across the Union pair. By contrast, Art House Condos fields 13 amenities including an indoor pool, sauna and steam room, gym, digital arts centre, and culinary arts room; The Mark adds a rooftop terrace, pet wash station, tai chi studio, and games room to its 11-amenity package; and The Upper Village - South Tower layers in a yoga studio, rooftop terrace, and media theatre across nine facilities. Tenants choosing Union - Building A trade away aquatic, fitness, and social-lounge programming in exchange for a 783-square-foot interior at a rate $0.27 to $0.45 per square foot below these amenity-rich peers—a package best suited to professionals and small households who value generous living space and predictable operating costs over resort-style common areas.
