DeveloperJ. Kara Capital Corporation

Film Work Lofts at 80 King William Street in Central Hamilton is a 50-suite residential building completed in 2010 by J. Kara Capital Corporation. As of August 31, 2026, three units are actively listed for rent, representing a 6 percent availability rate across the building. No closed leases have been recorded in the trailing 30-day, 90-day, or full historical tracking window, and the average days on market for the three active listings stands at 54 days.

The three available one-bedroom suites carry an average asking rent of $1,767 per month across a mean footprint of 783 square feet, translating to an asking rate of $2.26 per square foot. That per-square-foot figure sits 23.1 percent below the Central Hamilton submarket asking benchmark of $2.94 per square foot, positioning Film Work Lofts as a notably rate-competitive option within the neighbourhood. Because no realized lease transactions have been logged for this building, a direct comparison between current asking rents and closed lease pricing cannot be performed; renters should anchor expectations to the broader submarket average lease rent of $1,925 per month and the submarket realized rate of $3.09 per square foot.

Marketing friction at Film Work Lofts warrants attention: the 54-day average days on market exceeds the Central Hamilton submarket benchmark of 45 days by a full nine days, signaling slower leasing velocity despite the building's below-market per-square-foot pricing. All three active listings fall within the one-bedroom tier, offering a small but limited selection rather than broad layout variety. Negotiation dynamics cannot be assessed because no initial listed prices or closed lease concessions have been recorded, and active parking premiums cannot be reliably isolated from the available data. Renters evaluating these units should treat the asking rents as firm starting points and weigh the 54-day market exposure as a potential lever in discussions with the property manager.

Active Market Insights & Questions

How has rental availability changed at Film Work Lofts recently?

Film Work Lofts has three units actively listed as of August 31, 2026, with asking rents ranging from $1,750 to $1,800 per month, an average of $1,767, and a median of $1,750. The three suites average 783 square feet at an asking rate of $2.26 per square foot, and every available unit is a one-bedroom layout representing 100 percent of current active inventory. The building's available stock leans entirely toward compact entry-level one-bedroom suites, with no two-bedroom or multi-bedroom executive layouts currently on the market.

What floor plans and unit layouts are currently available at Film Work Lofts?

One-bedroom suites account for all three active listings at Film Work Lofts, representing 100 percent of the building's available inventory. The tier averages $1,767 per month across 783 square feet at $2.26 per square foot, with a median asking rent of $1,750. No other bedroom tiers are currently listed, so renters seeking two-bedroom or larger layouts must look to other Central Hamilton buildings.

What is the average asking rent and $/SF by suite size at Film Work Lofts?

Film Work Lofts shows a minimum entry rent of $1,750 per month and a peak asking rent of $1,800 per month, producing a dollar spread of $50 and a percentage spread of 2.9 percent across its three active listings. The median asking rent sits at $1,750 per month. The entry-level suite is a 750-square-foot one-bedroom asking $2.33 per square foot, while the peak suite is an 850-square-foot one-bedroom priced at $2.12 per square foot, meaning the larger unit actually carries a lower per-square-foot rate despite the higher nominal rent.

How much extra do parking spaces and dens cost at Film Work Lofts?

Den premiums at Film Work Lofts cannot be quantified because no active listings include a den configuration, leaving the dollar premium and square-footage delta unrecorded. Active parking stall costs also cannot be reliably isolated from the available data, as the paired sample is insufficient to separate a consistent monthly parking add-on from anomalous outliers. Renters should request a written parking quote directly from the property manager before committing to a lease.

How do asking rents at Film Work Lofts compare to local and municipal benchmarks?

Film Work Lofts asks an average of $1,767 per month at $2.26 per square foot, compared to the Central Hamilton submarket asking benchmark of $2,026 per month and $2.94 per square foot. The building's per-square-foot rate runs 23.1 percent below the submarket asking standard, a gap that reflects both the building's 2010 construction era and its compact 783-square-foot average suite size rather than a reduction in unit quality. Film Work Lofts accounts for three out of 197 available listings in the Central Hamilton submarket, representing roughly 1.5 percent of the neighbourhood's total active rental inventory.

12-Month Market Dynamics & Trend Trajectory

Film Work Lofts at 80 King William St currently lists three 1-Bedroom units at an average asking rent of $1,767 per month and $2.26 per square foot, positioning the building 23.1% below the Central Hamilton submarket average asking rate of $2.94 per square foot and roughly 13% under the submarket average realized lease rent of $1,925 per month. The submarket average lease rate per square foot stands at $3.09, meaning Film Work Lofts' active asking sits well below both the asking and realized benchmarks for its immediate area. With zero closed leases in the trailing 30 days, 90 days, one year, or lifetime, no transaction distribution exists to evaluate pricing discipline or landlord concession patterns. The negotiation direction is classified as insufficient data, the annualized impact is $0, and no percentage of leases can be characterized as closing under, at, or above asking. Film Work Lofts' pricing leverage story is currently unwritten because the market has not yet transacted on this building's inventory.

Nearby Building Rental Comparables & Price Spreads

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

Film Work Lofts at 80 King William St sits within a tight cluster of four nearby competitors along King Street East in Central Hamilton, all within 200 metres. Gore Park Lofts (121 King St E, 0.03 km, built in 2024) recorded four closed leases over the trailing 180 days; Residences of Royal Connaught – Phase 2 (118 King St E, 0.11 km, built in 2019) logged 13 closed leases; Residences of Royal Connaught (112 King St E, 0.12 km, built in 2018) also logged 13 closed leases; and Theatre Lofts (193 King Street E, 0.19 km, built in 2025) recorded one closed lease. All four peers carry active transaction volume, placing them in the 2018-to-2025 construction window, while Film Work Lofts dates to 2010, making it the oldest asset in this immediate pocket by a decade or more. The four-comparable benchmark averages $1,877 per month in realized rent, $2.74 per square foot, and 697 square feet of interior space. Film Work Lofts currently lists three active one-bedroom suites at an average asking rent of $1,767 per month, $2.26 per square foot, and 783 square feet—meaning the subject's asking rate sits roughly $110 below the comp average while offering approximately 86 additional square feet per suite. The building's 50-suite scale and 2010 construction place it in a mid-generation tier between the 2018–2019 Royal Connaught pair and the 2024–2025 Gore Park and Theatre Lofts entries, positioning it as a value-oriented alternative for renters who prioritise interior footprint over amenity density.

Comparable Analysis & Questions

How do rental rates at Film Work Lofts compare to neighbouring buildings within Central Hamilton?

Film Work Lofts carries no realized lease transactions in its history, so its current market signal comes from three active listings averaging $1,767 per month—$110 below the four-comparable realized average of $1,877 per month. Gore Park Lofts (121 King St E, 0.03 km) closed four leases at an average of $1,763 per month ($2.36 per square foot, 750 sq ft); Residences of Royal Connaught – Phase 2 (118 King St E, 0.11 km) closed 13 leases at $2,207 per month ($2.82 per square foot, 800 sq ft); Residences of Royal Connaught (112 King St E, 0.12 km) closed 13 leases at $2,056 per month ($2.88 per square foot, 726 sq ft); and Theatre Lofts (193 King Street E, 0.19 km) closed one lease at $1,480 per month ($2.90 per square foot, 510 sq ft). Because the subject has zero closed leases, no direct realized-rent spread can be computed against any individual competitor; the comparison above relies on the subject's active asking data versus each peer's realized transaction figures.

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

Film Work Lofts offers 783 square feet of interior space at an asking rate of $2.26 per square foot, which is a discount below the four-comparable average of $2.74 per square foot and below every active peer's realized per-square-foot rate. Against Gore Park Lofts (750 sq ft at $2.36 per square foot), the subject provides 33 additional square feet at a structurally comparable per-square-foot rate; against Residences of Royal Connaught – Phase 2 (800 sq ft at $2.82 per square foot) and Residences of Royal Connaught (726 sq ft at $2.88 per square foot), the subject trades at a meaningful per-square-foot discount while remaining within a similar footprint band; and against Theatre Lofts (510 sq ft at $2.90 per square foot), the subject delivers 273 more square feet at a lower rate per square foot. The practical trade-off for a renter is straightforward: the subject's larger interior footprint and lower asking rate per square foot come in exchange for a thinner amenity package and a building that is a decade older than the nearest 2018–2024 competitors.

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

Film Work Lofts provides a single common facility—a Library & Reading Room—making it a deliberately lean, low-maintenance residential building in a pocket where every nearby competitor layers on gyms, concierge services, rooftop terraces, and social lounges. Gore Park Lofts (121 King St E) offers a shared laundry room, dining room and kitchen, and a gym; both Royal Connaught phases (112 and 118 King St E) stack concierge and security, a gym and fitness centre, a yoga studio, party and lounge rooms, media and theatre rooms, games and billiards rooms, dining rooms, BBQ areas, rooftop terraces, and garden courtyards; and Theatre Lofts (193 King Street E) includes concierge, a gym, a party and lounge room, and a meeting room. The subject's Library & Reading Room does not appear in any competitor's amenity list, giving it a quiet, study-oriented character absent from the fitness-and-entertainment-heavy profiles around it. This package best serves cost-conscious professionals, graduate students, or remote workers who value a larger private suite and a low-drama building environment over gym access, rooftop social spaces, or concierge service.
