Active den premiums at 525 Eglinton Avenue E cannot be quantified from the current dataset, as no paired den versus non-den listings provide a reliable square-footage delta or marginal cost per square foot. Parking stall costs are similarly unquoted; the available sample is flagged as unreliable due to anomalous outliers or insufficient paired data, so no specific monthly parking fee can be stated with confidence.

525 Eglinton Avenue E asks an average of $2,473 per month at $3.42 per square foot, compared to the North Midtown submarket asking benchmark of $2,803 per month and $4.27 per square foot. The building's 19.9 percent discount on a per-square-foot basis reflects both a structurally lower rate and a larger average footprint of 725 square feet versus the submarket norm, meaning the nominal monthly rent gap of roughly $330 is partly offset by the additional living area tenants receive. The building's four active listings represent 4 out of 232 available units in the North Midtown submarket, a 1.7 percent share of total neighbourhood inventory.

525 Eglinton Avenue E realized an average lease rent of $2,095 per month over its two recorded transactions, which sits $365 above the overall comp benchmark of $1,730 and below the North Midtown submarket average of $2,612. Against the three active peers, the subject commands a higher monthly rent than each: $695 more than 570 Eglinton Avenue West (570 Eglinton Avenue West, 0.04 km, 1 closed lease, $1,400 average rent, $3.50 per square foot, 400 square feet), $145 more than Soho Bayview (562 Eglinton Ave E, 0.06 km, 1 closed lease, $1,950 average rent, $3.00 per square foot, 650 square feet), and $255 more than La Costa (600 Eglinton Ave E, 0.08 km, 5 closed leases, $1,840 average rent, $3.39 per square foot, 570 square feet). The Braxton (1750 Bayview Ave, 0.20 km) recorded zero closed leases in the trailing 180 days and therefore carries no realized rent benchmark against which to compare the subject.

525 Eglinton Avenue E leases at $3.72 per square foot with an average suite size of 625 square feet, placing it above the three-comp average of $3.30 per square foot and 540 square feet while remaining below the North Midtown submarket leased benchmark of $4.19 per square foot. Against Soho Bayview, the subject trades at a $0.72 per square foot (24 percent) premium yet provides 25 fewer interior square feet, meaning the higher nominal rent of $145 is driven by a tighter footprint rather than a weaker per-unit valuation. Versus La Costa, the subject commands a $0.33 per square foot (9.7 percent) premium while delivering 55 more interior square feet, so the $255 rent differential reflects both a higher rate and a larger unit. Compared with 570 Eglinton Avenue West, the subject carries a $0.22 per square foot (6.3 percent) premium and 225 more interior square feet, producing the widest nominal gap of $695 per month; here the subject's larger footprint is the primary driver of the higher total rent rather than an outsized per-square-foot mark.

525 Eglinton Avenue E offers a minimal amenity package consisting of concierge and security plus a shared laundry room, a notably leaner lifestyle profile than its immediate peers. Soho Bayview (562 Eglinton Ave E) layers in a gym and fitness centre, party and lounge room, meeting room, business centre, games and billiards room, library and reading room, BBQ area, and rooftop terrace—nine distinct facilities the subject does not provide. La Costa (600 Eglinton Ave E) adds a gym, party room, meeting room, rooftop terrace, and pet wash station on top of the concierge and laundry the subject already carries. The Braxton (1750 Bayview Ave), while recording zero lease transactions, similarly lists a gym, party room, and meeting room absent from the subject's offering. This no-frills, low-maintenance configuration appeals to cost-conscious renters—typically students, young professionals, or budget-sensitive households—who prioritize a compact, well-located one-bedroom footprint on Eglinton Avenue over gym access, rooftop lounges, or remote-work facilities.
