The Dylan — Rental Market Data

The Dylan has four active listings as of August 31, 2026, spanning $2,450 to $4,000 per month with an average asking rent of $2,985 and a median of $2,745. The average available suite measures 895 square feet at $3.33 per square foot, and the inventory is evenly split across four layout tiers at 25 percent each, with no single dominant configuration. Current listings lean toward expanded two- and three-bedroom footprints rather than the compact one-bedroom-plus-den suites that dominated historical leasing activity.

No single layout commands a majority of The Dylan's four active listings; each tier—1-Bedroom + Den, 2-Bedroom, 2-Bedroom + Den, and 3-Bedroom+—holds exactly one unit at 25 percent share. The 1-Bedroom + Den asks $2,500 per month across 726 square feet at $3.44 per square foot, the 2-Bedroom lists at $2,450 for 761 square feet at $3.22 per square foot, the 2-Bedroom + Den commands $2,990 for 917 square feet at $3.26 per square foot, and the 3-Bedroom+ peaks at $4,000 for 1,174 square feet at $3.41 per square foot. Every tier represents a single listing, so renters should act quickly on any preferred configuration.

The Dylan's four active listings span a $1,550 spread (63.3 percent) from a $2,450 entry point to a $4,000 peak. The median asking rent sits at $2,745 per month, anchoring the mid-range between the two-bedroom and two-bedroom-plus-den tiers. The entry-level 2-Bedroom at 761 square feet and $3.22 per square foot offers the most accessible per-square-foot rate, while the peak 3-Bedroom+ at 1,174 square feet and $3.41 per square foot commands a premium for executive-scale living space.

The Dylan's active den premium and marginal cost per additional square foot of den space cannot be reliably quantified from the current four-listing sample. Active parking stall premiums are likewise inconclusive due to an insufficient paired sample, and no verified dollar figure can be quoted for the current inventory. Historical lease data does confirm a verified parking add-on of $185 per month, which serves as a reasonable reference point for renters budgeting for a stall.

The Dylan's active asking rate of $3.33 per square foot sits 19.2 percent below the Yorkdale submarket asking benchmark of $4.12 per square foot, positioning the building as a value-oriented option despite its higher nominal monthly rent. The $2,985 average asking rent exceeds the submarket average of $2,554 by roughly $431 per month, a variance fully explained by The Dylan's 895-square-foot average suite versus the submarket's smaller typical footprint. The building currently holds four out of thirty-nine available listings in the Yorkdale submarket, representing approximately 10.3 percent of total active inventory in the area.

The Dylan's average realized lease rent of $2,362 per month sits $16 above the four-comp blended benchmark of $2,346 and just under the Yorkdale submarket average of $2,384. Against individual peers, The Shermount at 650 Lawrence Ave W (0.95 km, 6 closed leases) averages $2,283 per month, meaning the subject commands a $79-per-month higher rent; Treviso at 800 Lawrence Ave W (0.98 km, 9 closed leases) averages $2,372, placing the subject $10 lower; Treviso II at 830 Lawrence Ave W (1.06 km, 19 closed leases) averages $2,471, so the subject trades at a $109-per-month lower rent; and Treviso III – Residenze Pallazzo at 3091 Dufferin St (1.13 km, 15 closed leases) averages $2,258, where the subject realizes $104 more per month. All four comparables recorded closed lease transactions over the trailing 180 days, so each provides a realized pricing benchmark rather than a listing-only reference.

The Dylan leases at $3.49 per square foot across an average 681-square-foot suite, a rate that undercuts the comp-set average of $3.83 per square foot and the submarket leased benchmark of $3.87 per square foot while delivering more interior space than three of four nearby alternatives. Against The Shermount (691 sq ft, $3.32/sq ft), the subject commands a $0.17-per-square-foot premium (5.1 percent higher) but provides 10 fewer interior square feet, so the higher per-foot rate is offset by a marginally tighter footprint. Versus Treviso (639 sq ft, $3.75/sq ft), the subject trades at a $0.26-per-square-foot discount (6.9 percent lower) while offering 42 more square feet—a clear space-for-value trade-off where the nominal rent is only $10 lower despite the larger unit. Against Treviso II (640 sq ft, $3.95/sq ft), the subject offers a $0.46-per-square-foot discount (11.6 percent lower) with 41 additional square feet, and the $109-per-month lower rent is driven by the larger interior footprint rather than a weaker asset valuation. Treviso III – Residenze Pallazzo (532 sq ft, $4.30/sq ft) presents the sharpest contrast: the subject trades at a $0.81-per-square-foot discount (18.8 percent lower) yet provides 149 more square feet, and the $104-per-month higher nominal rent reflects the substantially larger suite rather than a per-foot premium.

The Dylan's amenity package—Concierge & Security, Gym & Fitness Centre, Party & Lounge Room, Meeting Room, Games & Billiards Room, BBQ Area, Rooftop Terrace, Kids' Play Room (Indoor), Pet Wash Station, and Study Area—positions it as a family- and remote-work-oriented building that differentiates on child-focused and productivity spaces absent from every nearby competitor. The Shermount (2003) offers no rooftop terrace, no BBQ area, no kids' play room, no pet wash station, and no dedicated study area; Treviso and Treviso II (2015 and 2017) layer in aquatic and wellness features (indoor/outdoor pools, hot tub, sauna) that the subject does not carry, yet neither provides an indoor kids' play room or a study area; Treviso III – Residenze Pallazzo (2019) adds a media/theatre room and EV charging but still lacks the subject's dedicated kids' play room and study area. The building's lifestyle package—pairing a pet wash station with an indoor play room, a study area alongside a meeting room, and a rooftop terrace with BBQ access—best serves young professional families and remote workers who prioritize child-friendly common space, flexible work-from-home infrastructure, and pet convenience over resort-style aquatic amenities.
