Year Completed1972
Total Suites492
DeveloperNot Disclosed

40 Homewood at 40 Homewood Ave in Toronto's Cabbagetown neighbourhood is a 492-suite residential building completed in 1972, with no developer of record. As of August 31, 2026, two units are actively listed for rent, representing a 0.4 percent availability rate across the tower. Recent leasing activity shows two closed leases in the trailing 30 days at an average of $2,025 per month with a 61-day average time on market, and four closed leases over the past 90 days averaging $1,913 per month with a 44-day average DOM.

Active asking rents at 40 Homewood average $2,000 per month at $4.23 per square foot across an average 475-square-foot footprint, which is a more compact rate per square foot than the $4.41 per square foot realized in the 90-day lease cohort. The current listings also carry a larger average footprint of 475 square feet compared to the 438-square-foot average of historical closed leases, meaning tenants are gaining additional space at a lower unit rate. Against the Cabbagetown submarket asking benchmark of $4.33 per square foot, 40 Homewood's active inventory prices 2.3 percent below the neighbourhood norm.

Marketing friction at 40 Homewood warrants attention: the 27-day average active DOM sits above the Cabbagetown submarket benchmark of 22 days, and the trailing 30-day closed-lease cohort averaged 61 days on market, well above the submarket pace, even though zero listings have been delisted or expired. Across all four tracked closed transactions, tenants negotiated an average concession of $138 per month, or 5.72 percent below asking, a tenant-favorable outcome that translates to roughly $1,656 in annual savings. Active inventory is split evenly between one studio and one one-bedroom unit, meaning each layout tier offers only a single available option with no depth for comparison shopping within the building.

Active Market Insights & Questions

How has rental availability changed at 40 Homewood recently?

40 Homewood lists two active units as of August 31, 2026, with asking rents ranging from $1,750 to $2,250 per month, an average of $2,000 per month, and a median of $2,000 per month. The two available suites average 475 square feet at a combined asking rate of $4.23 per square foot, split evenly between one studio (400 sq ft) and one one-bedroom (550 sq ft). Inventory is balanced across entry-level and compact one-bedroom tiers rather than skewing toward multi-bedroom executive layouts, and both listings represent single-unit availability with no additional depth in either bedroom category.

What floor plans and unit layouts are currently available at 40 Homewood?

The dominant active layout at 40 Homewood is the one-bedroom, with one unit representing 50 percent of available inventory at an average asking rent of $2,250 per month across 550 square feet at $4.09 per square foot. The studio tier also holds one unit at 50 percent share, asking $1,750 per month for 400 square feet at $4.38 per square foot. Both bedroom tiers are single-listing samples, so neither tier offers a comparative spread within the building, and renters should treat each as an individual transaction rather than a market-rate cluster.

What is the average asking rent and $/SF by suite size at 40 Homewood?

40 Homewood's active asking rents span from $1,750 to $2,250 per month, a $500 spread representing 28.6 percent of the entry price point. The median asking rent sits at $2,000 per month, exactly midway between the two available units. The entry-level studio offers 400 square feet at $4.38 per square foot, while the peak one-bedroom provides 550 square feet at a more competitive $4.09 per square foot, meaning the larger suite delivers better value on a per-square-foot basis despite the higher nominal rent.

How much extra do parking spaces and dens cost at 40 Homewood?

Active den premiums at 40 Homewood cannot be quantified, as no paired den versus non-den listings exist in the current two-unit inventory to isolate a marginal cost per square foot for additional den space. Verified parking data from closed leases indicates a $50 per month parking stall add-on, but the active listing sample is too small and contains anomalous outliers to reliably isolate a current parking premium, so renters should confirm parking costs directly with the leasing office before signing.

How do asking rents at 40 Homewood compare to local and municipal benchmarks?

40 Homewood's active asking average of $2,000 per month at $4.23 per square foot undercuts the Cabbagetown submarket asking benchmark of $3,178 per month and $4.33 per square foot by 2.3 percent on a rate-per-square-foot basis. The nominal rent gap of roughly $1,178 per month is explained by suite sizing: 40 Homewood's active listings average 475 square feet versus the broader submarket's larger unit profiles, and the building's realized lease rate of $4.41 per square foot actually runs 4.3 percent above the submarket lease benchmark of $4.23 per square foot. The two available units at 40 Homewood represent 2 out of 106 active listings in the Cabbagetown submarket, a 1.9 percent share of total neighbourhood inventory.

Leased Transaction Insights & Questions

How many suites were leased at 40 Homewood last month, and how fast did they rent?

40 Homewood closed 2 leases in the trailing 30 days at an average DOM of 61 days, well above the Cabbagetown submarket benchmark of 22 days. Over the 90-day window, the building logged 4 total closings at a 44-day average DOM. Lifetime volume also stands at 4 leases, meaning all tracked leasing activity falls within the last quarter. Leasing cadence has paused rather than accelerated, with the 30-day DOM nearly tripling the submarket norm and signalling slower tenant turnover at this address.

What is the negotiation spread between asking rents and closed lease prices at 40 Homewood?

40 Homewood tenants negotiated an average discount of $138 per month (5.72% below asking), translating to $1,656 in annual savings per unit. Exactly 50% of the four tracked leases closed under the listed asking price, confirming tangible tenant leverage in this small sample. Landlords at 40 Homewood are conceding on price to close deals rather than holding firm at asking, a pattern that favours prospective renters negotiating in this submarket.

What are typical executed lease prices across different layouts at 40 Homewood?

Studios dominate 40 Homewood's lease activity, accounting for 75% of closed deals at an average $1,817 per month and a 27-day DOM. The studio tier (3 leases, small sample) shows a median of $1,850, a P25-P75 range of $1,800 to $1,850, an average footprint of 400 square feet, and a rate of $4.54 per square foot. The single 1-bedroom lease closed at $2,200 per month on a 550-square-foot suite at $4.00 per square foot, with a 95-day DOM. That one-bedroom figure represents an individual single transaction, not a broad statistical benchmark.

What measurable rent premium did suites with parking achieve in closed leases at 40 Homewood?

40 Homewood carries a verified leased parking premium of $50 per month. This modest add-on suggests parking is bundled into suite pricing rather than sold as a standalone premium product. Active asking parking data is inconclusive due to insufficient paired samples, so no reliable comparison can be drawn between realized and asking parking rates at this building.

How does the lease-to-listing ratio at 40 Homewood reflect current tenant demand?

40 Homewood shows a modest upward rent trajectory from July to August 2026, with average lease rent climbing from $1,800 to $2,025 per month. In July, two leases closed at an average of $1,800 per month, $4.50 per square foot, and a 27-day DOM. In August, two leases closed at $2,025 per month, $4.31 per square foot, and a 61-day DOM. The nominal rent increase in August reflects larger suite footprints rather than a pricing shift, as the per-square-foot rate actually declined from July to August.

12-Month Market Dynamics & Trend Trajectory

40 Homewood's average realized rent of $1,913 per month sits 27% below the Cabbagetown submarket average of $2,636, positioning the building as a value-oriented option in a premium micro-market. The building's $4.41 per square foot rate runs 4.3% above the submarket leased benchmark of $4.23 per square foot, suggesting tenants pay a modest density premium for the 438-square-foot average suite despite the lower nominal rent. Against the submarket asking benchmark of $4.33 per square foot, 40 Homewood's realized rate is competitive at a 2.3% discount. Pricing discipline at 40 Homewood leans tenant-favorable, with 50% of tracked leases closing below asking price. The average concession of $138 per month (5.72%) represents a meaningful landlord give, saving tenants $1,656 per year across the four-lease sample. This pattern indicates landlords are willing to move on price to close deals rather than hold units vacant, a concession pattern consistent with the building's value positioning below submarket norms.

Nearby Building Rental Comparables & Price Spreads

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

40 Homewood at 40 Homewood Ave sits in a tight Cabbagetown cluster of four nearby buildings spanning 1926 to 1990. Three active peers recorded closed lease transactions over the trailing 180 days: Esprit A at 60 Homewood Ave (0.06 km, built in 1990, 1 closed lease), Celebrity Place at 77 Maitland Pl (0.12 km, built in 1985, 6 closed leases), and Esprit B at 15 Maitland Pl (0.14 km, built in 1990, 3 closed leases). La Verne at 134 Carlton Street (0.14 km, built in 1926) recorded zero lease transactions over the same window and serves purely as an architectural reference rather than an active pricing benchmark. The subject, completed in 1972, occupies a middle generation between La Verne's 1926 construction and the 1985–1990 cohort of its three active competitors. Across the three active comparables, the overall benchmark averages $2,798 per month in realized rent, $3.42 per square foot, and 819 square feet of interior space. 40 Homewood's realized lease metrics—$1,913 per month, $4.41 per square foot, and 438 square feet—position it well below the comp set on total monthly outlay and interior footprint while carrying a meaningfully higher rate per square foot. The building's 492-suite scale and 1972 construction give it a mid-century value proposition: renters trade away roughly 300 to 420 square feet of interior space compared with nearby peers but pay a proportionally smaller absolute rent, making the per-square-foot premium a function of compact suite sizing rather than a luxury valuation gap.

Comparable Analysis & Questions

How do rental rates at 40 Homewood compare to neighbouring buildings within Cabbagetown?

40 Homewood's average realized lease rent of $1,913 per month sits $885 below the overall comp benchmark of $2,798, with all three active competitors pricing above the subject. Esprit A at 60 Homewood Ave (0.06 km, 1 closed lease) averaged $2,495 per month at $3.33 per square foot across 750 square feet; Celebrity Place at 77 Maitland Pl (0.12 km, 6 closed leases) averaged $3,198 per month at $3.78 per square foot across 848 square feet; and Esprit B at 15 Maitland Pl (0.14 km, 3 closed leases) averaged $2,700 per month at $3.14 per square foot across 860 square feet. La Verne at 134 Carlton Street (0.14 km) recorded zero closed leases over the trailing 180 days and therefore carries no realized rent benchmark for comparison.

Does 40 Homewood offer a competitive price-per-square-foot ($/SF) against local comparables?

40 Homewood's leased rate of $4.41 per square foot across an average 438-square-foot suite commands a premium over every active nearby competitor on a per-space basis, while the lower nominal monthly rent reflects a materially smaller interior footprint rather than weaker asset valuation. Against Esprit A, the subject commands a $1.08 per square foot (32.4%) premium while providing 312 fewer interior square feet; the subject trades at a $582 lower monthly rent, and that gap is driven by the footprint difference rather than a per-space discount. Celebrity Place shows a $0.63 per square foot (16.7%) premium for the subject, with 410 fewer square feet and the subject trading at a $1,285 lower monthly rent. Esprit B presents the widest per-square-foot gap at $1.27 (40.4%) in the subject's favour, with 422 fewer square feet and the subject trading at a $787 lower monthly rent. In every pairing, the nominal rent variance is a function of suite size, not a concession in per-space value.

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

40 Homewood offers a 15-feature lifestyle package including an indoor pool, sauna and steam room, gym, EV charging station, rooftop terrace, and dedicated change rooms, placing it well ahead of La Verne's single concierge-and-security offering but behind the sport-court-heavy profiles of Esprit A and Esprit B. The subject's EV charging station is absent from both Esprit A (60 Homewood Ave) and Esprit B (15 Maitland Pl), and its dedicated change rooms appear in none of the four comparables. Esprit A and Esprit B each add tennis, pickleball, squash, basketball, and running-track facilities that 40 Homewood does not carry, while Celebrity Place differentiates with an on-site convenience store and a dining room and kitchen. The building's package—pool, wellness suite, meeting and media rooms, rooftop terrace, and EV infrastructure without the competitive court-sport layer—best serves professionals and small households who prioritize aquatic recreation, remote-work flexibility, and low-maintenance urban living over dedicated court sports.

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.

  • 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.
