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

Picasso's value proposition is defined by an average leased rate of $4.34 per square foot across an average layout size of 552 square feet, positioning it at a discount compared to newer high-density alternatives in the immediate submarket. Renters evaluating Picasso experience distinct trade-offs, accepting slightly more compact square footages in exchange for competitive absolute monthly housing costs. For instance, while Central Condos delivers larger 703 square foot layouts at $4.58 per square foot, and Tableau Condominiums provides 575 square foot suites at $4.57 per square foot, Picasso offers a more accessible entry point into the Entertainment District without sacrificing proximity.

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

Picasso delivers a lifestyle and amenity profile that compares favorably against surrounding developments, featuring 16 distinct shared spaces that support both active and social living. The building features an outdoor pool, a fully equipped gym and fitness centre, a dedicated yoga studio, and a rooftop terrace, contrasting directly with competing assets like 330 Richmond, which includes a pet wash station and spa treatments, and Central Condos, which offers an indoor pool, a golf simulator, and refrigerated parcel storage. Tableau Condominiums focuses on intimate community spaces such as a library, reading room, and cabanas, while the Phoebe - Beverley Building emphasizes traditional green space with a private garden and courtyard. This diverse amenity package particularly serves urban professionals and couples seeking comprehensive wellness and entertainment facilities on-site.

Data Methodology & Analytical Standards

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

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.
