Joy Condos at 195 Bonis Ave in Scarborough North is a 282-suite residential tower completed in 2018 by Gemterra Development Corp. As of August 31, 2026, two units are actively listed for rent, representing a 0.7 percent availability rate. The building closed two leases in the trailing 30 days at an average of $2,475 per month and seven leases over the past 90 days averaging $2,419 per month, with average days on market of 18 and 30 days respectively.

Active asking rents at Joy Condos average $2,465 per month at $3.79 per square foot across 650 square feet of space. The 90-day realized lease benchmark sits at $2,419 per month and $3.53 per square foot, meaning current listings carry a higher rate per square foot despite the nominal monthly rent being only modestly above recent closes. The active footprint of 650 square feet is also more compact than the 686-square-foot average seen across all tracked historical leases. Against the Scarborough North submarket asking benchmark of $3.29 per square foot, Joy Condos trades at a 15.2 percent premium on a rate-per-square-foot basis, even though the submarket implied average suite runs 780 square feet.

Marketing friction at Joy Condos is low: active listings have averaged just 8 days on market, well under the submarket benchmark of 28 days, and the zero-delisting record reinforces that units are turning over quickly. Across all tracked closed leases, tenants negotiated an average concession of $82 per month, or 3.23 percent below asking, with 72.7 percent of deals closing under the initial list price. Inventory depth is minimal at two units—one 1-Bedroom + Den and one 2-Bedroom—so renters face single-unit scarcity in each layout tier rather than a choice of multiple options.

Active Market Insights & Questions

How has rental availability changed at Joy Condos recently?

Joy Condos has two active rental listings as of August 31, 2026, with asking rents ranging from $2,400 to $2,530 per month, an average of $2,465, and a median of $2,465. Both available suites measure 650 square feet, producing an average asking rate of $3.79 per square foot. The inventory is split evenly between a 1-Bedroom + Den and a 2-Bedroom layout, each representing 50 percent of active stock, so neither compact entry-level nor multi-bedroom executive tiers dominate the current offering.

What floor plans and unit layouts are currently available at Joy Condos?

The dominant active layout at Joy Condos is the 1-Bedroom + Den, with one listing accounting for 50 percent of available inventory at an average asking rent of $2,400 per month across 650 square feet and a rate of $3.69 per square foot. The 2-Bedroom tier also holds one listing at 50 percent share, asking $2,530 per month over the same 650-square-foot footprint at $3.89 per square foot. Both tiers are single-listing samples, so no tier offers a multi-unit selection for renters comparing options within the building.

What is the average asking rent and $/SF by suite size at Joy Condos?

Joy Condos currently shows a minimum entry rent of $2,400 per month and a peak asking rent of $2,530 per month, producing a dollar spread of $130 and a percentage spread of 5.4 percent. The median asking rent sits at $2,465 per month. The entry-level suite is a 1-Bedroom + Den measuring 650 square feet at $3.69 per square foot, while the peak suite is a 2-Bedroom of the same 650-square-foot size at $3.89 per square foot.

How much extra do parking spaces and dens cost at Joy Condos?

Joy Condos does not have a quantified active den premium or square-footage delta, as the current two-unit sample does not provide a paired comparison to isolate marginal den costs. Active parking premiums also cannot be reliably isolated from the available data due to an insufficient paired sample or anomalous outlier readings. Historical lease records do confirm a verified parking stall cost of $270 per month, but that figure reflects closed transactions rather than current active listings.

How do asking rents at Joy Condos compare to local and municipal benchmarks?

Joy Condos asks an average of $2,465 per month at $3.79 per square foot, compared to the Scarborough North submarket asking benchmark of $2,566 per month at $3.29 per square foot. The building's nominal rent is $101 below the submarket average, but that gap is explained by suite size: Joy Condos' active units average 650 square feet versus the submarket implied average of 780 square feet, a 130-square-foot delta. On a rate-per-square-foot basis, Joy Condos trades 15.2 percent above the submarket asking benchmark, and the building's two listings represent 2 out of 97 total active listings in Scarborough North.

Leased Transaction Insights & Questions

How many suites were leased at Joy Condos last month, and how fast did they rent?

Joy Condos at 195 Bonis Ave closed leases in 18 days on average over the trailing 30 days, a meaningful acceleration from the 30-day average DOM recorded across the 90-day window and well ahead of the Scarborough North submarket benchmark of 28 days. Two leases closed in the last 30 days, seven in the last 90 days, and eleven across the full tracked lifetime. The drop in DOM from 30 to 18 days signals that leasing turnover is picking up rather than pausing, with the most recent closings moving through the pipeline faster than the broader submarket norm.

What is the negotiation spread between asking rents and closed lease prices at Joy Condos?

Joy Condos tenants negotiated an average discount of $82 per month (3.23% below asking) across tracked leases, translating to $984 in annual savings per unit. Seventy-two point seven percent of all closed leases settled under the landlord's original asking price, confirming consistent tenant leverage in this submarket. This pattern reflects genuine landlord concessions rather than a pricing premium, and prospective renters at 195 Bonis Ave should expect room to push back on the initial quoted rate.

What are typical executed lease prices across different layouts at Joy Condos?

The 1-Bedroom + Den layout dominates Joy Condos leasing with six closed leases averaging $2,225 per month and a 35-day DOM, while the 2-Bedroom + Den tier accounts for three leases at an average of $2,593 per month with a 49-day DOM. The 1-Bedroom + Den sample is a statistically robust benchmark; its median rent sits at $2,250 with a P25–P75 range of $2,162 to $2,338 across an average 633-square-foot suite at $3.52 per square foot. The 2-Bedroom + Den tier is a directional reference only given its small sample size of three leases; it averages $2,593 per month (median $2,600, P25–P75: $2,550 to $2,640) across 817 square feet at $3.18 per square foot. The two-lease 2-Bedroom tier is likewise a limited sample and directional indicator only, averaging $2,550 per month across 650 square feet at $3.92 per square foot with an 11-day DOM.

What measurable rent premium did suites with parking achieve in closed leases at Joy Condos?

Joy Condos carries a verified leased parking premium of $270 per month, confirming that parking is bundled into the suite rent rather than listed as a standalone line item. Active listings at the building do not provide a reliable parking premium figure due to insufficient paired samples, so the $270 verified lease value remains the only defensible benchmark for parking cost at 195 Bonis Ave. Tenants should budget for this bundled charge when comparing total occupancy costs against submarket alternatives.

How does the lease-to-listing ratio at Joy Condos reflect current tenant demand?

Joy Condos rents trended upward from $2,300 in April to $2,475 by August 2026, a net gain of $175 per month over the five-month tracked window. April saw one lease close at $2,300 per month ($3.54 per square foot) after 85 days on market. May brought two leases at $2,250 per month ($3.46 per square foot) with DOM compressing to 19 days. June recorded the highest volume at five leases, averaging $2,396 per month but at a lower $3.31 per square foot, indicating that the nominal rent increase reflected larger suite footprints rather than a pricing premium. July closed one lease at $2,500 per month ($3.85 per square foot) in just 8 days. August added two leases at $2,475 per month ($3.81 per square foot) with an 18-day DOM, holding the rate near the July peak.

12-Month Market Dynamics & Trend Trajectory

Joy Condos at 195 Bonis Ave realizes an average lease rent of $2,385 per month, sitting $30 below the Scarborough North submarket average of $2,415 per month. However, the building's $3.50 per square foot realized rate runs 6.3% above the submarket's $3.32 per square foot benchmark, a spread driven by the building's 686-square-foot average suite being meaningfully smaller than the submarket implied average of 780 square feet. Active asking rents at $2,465 per month and $3.79 per square foot also trade below the submarket asking average of $2,566 per month while commanding a 15.2% per-square-foot premium, reinforcing that compact footprints are the primary driver of the rate differential rather than a luxury positioning play. Pricing discipline at Joy Condos skews firmly in the tenant's favour. Across eleven tracked leases, 72.7% closed below the landlord's asking price, with an average concession of $82 per month (3.23% under asking) that translates to $984 in annual savings per unit. The net negotiation spread of -$82 per month confirms a consistent pattern of landlord give rather than tenant premium, and the tenant-favourable leverage is not an outlier but the dominant transactional norm at 195 Bonis Ave.

Nearby Building Rental Comparables & Price Spreads

Direct rental rate comparisons against residential properties in the immediate vicinity.

Joy Condos at 195 Bonis Ave sits in a tight cluster of four nearby competitors along Bonis Avenue in Scarborough North, all within 0.18 kilometres. Love Condominiums (185 Bonis Ave, 0.09 km, completed 2015) posted 13 closed leases over the trailing 180 days, making it the most active peer in the pocket. Legends at Tam O'Shanter (238 Bonis Ave, 0.12 km, completed 2007) recorded 6 closed leases, Greens at Tam O'Shanter I (168 Bonis Ave, 0.18 km, completed 1992) logged 2, and Tam O'Shanter Highlands II (228 Bonis Ave, 0.11 km, completed 1997) closed a single lease transaction. The group spans three distinct construction eras—late-1990s, mid-2000s, and mid-2010s—placing Joy Condos (built in 2018) as the newest asset in the set by two to twenty-six years. Against the four-comp benchmark of $2,756 average rent, $2.51 per square foot, and 1,182 average square feet, Joy Condos positions itself as a compact-suite, higher-rate product. The subject's realized average of $2,385 per month and 686 square feet of interior space sits well below the comp group on both nominal rent and total footprint, yet its $3.50 per square foot rate runs roughly 40 percent above the comp average of $2.51 per square foot. In practical terms, a renter at Joy Condos pays more for each square foot of space but receives a materially smaller unit, trading interior volume for a newer building shell, a 2018 construction standard, and a denser amenity mix that includes a dedicated yoga studio absent from every nearby competitor.

Tam O'Shanter Highlands II at 228 Bonis Ave (0.11 km, 1 closed lease) recorded $3,200 per month at $2.13 per square foot over 1,500 square feet, a single-transaction sample that places the subject $815 below that figure.

Does Joy Condos offer a competitive price-per-square-foot ($/SF) against local comparables?

Joy Condos leases at $3.50 per square foot on an average 686-square-foot suite, a rate 39 percent above the comp-group average of $2.51 per square foot but applied to a footprint roughly half the size of the 1,182-square-foot comp benchmark. Against Love Condominiums (669 sq ft, $3.43/SF), the subject trades at a $0.07 per square foot premium while providing 17 more interior square feet, so the higher per-foot rate is offset by marginally greater space. Versus Legends at Tam O'Shanter (1,058 sq ft, $2.41/SF), the subject commands a $1.09 per square foot premium but delivers 372 fewer square feet; the $111 lower nominal rent is driven entirely by the smaller interior footprint rather than a weaker asset valuation. The same dynamic holds against Greens at Tam O'Shanter I (1,500 sq ft, $2.08/SF) and Tam O'Shanter Highlands II (1,500 sq ft, $2.13/SF), where the subject's $1.42 and $1.37 per square foot premiums respectively are more than neutralized by 814 fewer square feet of living area in each case.

How do building age, amenities, and developer reputation impact rent spreads?

Joy Condos offers an eleven-item amenity suite that includes a dedicated yoga studio, a feature no nearby competitor provides, alongside an indoor pool, rooftop terrace, hot tub, sauna, gym, games room, BBQ area, party lounge, concierge security, and a garden courtyard. Love Condominiums (185 Bonis Ave) matches most of that list but adds an outdoor tai chi area the subject lacks; Legends at Tam O'Shanter (238 Bonis Ave) and Tam O'Shanter Highlands II (228 Bonis Ave) each include a meeting room and, in Legends' case, a dining room and kitchen that Joy Condos does not offer. Greens at Tam O'Shanter I (168 Bonis Ave) stands out with an outdoor pool, basketball court, squash and racquetball courts, a golf simulator, and a car wash bay—recreational and convenience features entirely absent from the subject's package. The yoga studio, combined with the indoor pool, hot tub, and sauna, positions Joy Condos as a wellness-forward lifestyle building best suited to active professionals and fitness-oriented renters who prioritize daily movement and recovery spaces over the sports-court or remote-work facilities found at the older Tam O'Shanter properties.

Data Methodology & Analytical Standards

How FastScreen aggregates public listing records, tracks active inventory, and calculates rental market metrics for Joy Condos.

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.
