DeveloperTimes Group

Developed by Times Group and completed in 2014, Uptown Markham - River Park C stands at 8228 Birchmount Rd in the Markham City Centre neighborhood, housing 206 total suites across an established residential building footprint that currently maintains a modest active inventory of 2 units, reflecting a tight availability rate of 1.0 percent. Leasing velocity over the past 90 days reached 11 transactions with an average days on market of 26, complemented by a short-term 30-day pace of 3 transactions averaging 11 days on market. Active asking rents average $2,425 per month at $4.07 per square foot for an average 600 square feet, sitting moderately below the 90-day realized lease average of $2,309 per month across 658 square feet due to a smaller active footprint rather than cheaper unit pricing. Active pricing also tracks below the broader Markham City Centre submarket asking rent of $2,711 per month, though the building's active rate per square foot of $4.07 outpaces the submarket asking benchmark of $3.58 per square foot by 13.7 percent.

Tenant negotiating leverage remains evident as 33.3 percent of recent leases closed under asking, resulting in an average tenant discount of $17 per month or 0.8 percent below original list price, translating to $204 in annual savings. Closed days on market averaged 26 days over the trailing 90-day window, closely aligning with historical absorption patterns. Unrented inventory shows complete pricing parity with realized leases, as zero delisted or terminated units were recorded during the tracking period. Prospective tenants evaluating current options will find that active inventory is exclusively restricted to 1-Bedroom + Den layouts, leaving zero availability for studio, 2-bedroom, or larger multi-room configurations.

Active leasing options are entirely confined to 1-Bedroom + Den floor plans, creating a highly concentrated inventory pool with zero availability across other bedroom counts. Active parking premiums cannot be reliably isolated from current listings due to an insufficient paired sample, meaning parking stall costs remain inconclusive without speculative figures. Tenants seeking compact, high-efficiency layouts will encounter a streamlined selection at 8228 Birchmount Rd, while those requiring larger square footages must monitor future turnover as current stock offers limited layout variety.

Data Methodology & Analytical Standards

How FastScreen aggregates public listing records, tracks active inventory, and calculates rental market metrics for Uptown Markham - River Park C.

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.
