How do asking prices on de-listed suites compare to executed leases and active listings at Two Fifty Two Church?

At Two Fifty Two Church, unrented units asked an average of $2,050 per month, which is $229 per month below realized lease averages nominally due to smaller average floor plans, but commanded a lower rate per square foot ($3.52 per square foot versus $4.59 per square foot all-time). Unrented listings featured a lower nominal asking price because they were concentrated in smaller footprints while experiencing weaker market reception.

What market friction causes rental listings to stall or de-list at Two Fifty Two Church?

At Two Fifty Two Church, delisted units sat on the market for an average of 34 days compared to 21 days for realized leases, generating 13 excess days of unrented vacancy carry. Translating these 13 excess days into economic carrying costs results in roughly 0.43 months of lost rental income plus ongoing condo maintenance fees absorbed by landlords before pulling the listings.

Comparable Analysis & Questions

Two Fifty Two Church achieves an average all-time lease rent of $2,296 per month, positioning itself competitively against the overall comparable benchmark average of $2,619 per month across key nearby competitor towers. Social at Church + Dundas (100 Dalhousie St) reports an average lease rent of $2,628 per month at $4.10 per square foot across an average of 646 square feet. 199 Church (199 Church St) reports no active lease transactions in the trailing period. 199 Church Condos (82 Dalhousie Street) posts an average lease rent of $2,404 per month at $4.61 per square foot across an average of 537 square feet.

Does Two Fifty Two Church offer a competitive price-per-square-foot ($/SF) against local comparables?

Two Fifty Two Church establishes its value proposition through a modern average leased rate of $4.59 per square foot across an average suite size of 511 square feet, aligning closely with newer downtown inventory while offering high functional efficiency. When evaluated against nearby alternatives, the building trades at a slight $0.02 per square foot discount below 199 Church Condos at 82 Dalhousie Street (which leases at $4.61 per square foot across 537 square feet), while commanding a premium over older properties like the Boot at 75 Dalhousie St ($3.32 per square foot across 850 square feet). Renters navigating this micro-market weigh distinct trade-offs: choosing Two Fifty Two Church delivers brand-new 2025 construction, modern layout efficiency, and reduced utility burdens, whereas opting for a vintage alternative like the Boot yields a larger interior footprint at a lower rate per square foot but sacrifices contemporary finishes and modern building systems.

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

Two Fifty Two Church delivers an extensive, lifestyle-oriented amenity program that rivals or exceeds the offerings found across competing Downtown East towers. Signature features at the subject property include a dedicated Spin Studio, a Golf Simulator, a Pet Wash Station, a Tanning Deck, and a comprehensive Business Centre. By comparison, Social at Church + Dundas includes a Sauna & Steam Room alongside standard fitness and social spaces; 199 Church features a Library & Reading Room; 199 Church Condos incorporates Automated Parcel Storage; and the older Boot building provides a more traditional set restricted to a basic gym, party room, and rooftop terrace without specialized fitness or pet amenities. This robust package caters exceptionally well to young professionals, remote workers, and pet owners seeking an all-inclusive urban lifestyle without leaving the building.

Data Methodology & Analytical Standards

How FastScreen aggregates public listing records, tracks active inventory, and calculates rental market metrics for Two Fifty Two Church.

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.
