8888 Yonge — Rental Market Data
Building Summary & Rental Market Overview
Rental market analytics and building profile as of August 31, 2026.
8888 Yonge, a 204-suite tower at 8888 Yonge St in Richmond Hill developed by Metroview Developments and completed in 2025, currently holds six active listings representing a 2.9 percent availability rate. The building has closed four leases in the past 30 days at an average of $2,588 per month with a 14-day average days-on-market, and fifteen leases over the trailing 90 days averaging $2,727 per month with a 43-day DOM, signaling steady initial-occupancy leasing momentum.
Active asking rents average $3,550 per month at $5.11 per square foot across 694 square feet of average suite size, compared to realized 90-day leases that closed at $2,727 per month and $3.53 per square foot. The elevated active average is driven by two three-bedroom-plus listings averaging $5,375 per month at $7.62 per square foot, which pull the blended figure well above the two-bedroom tier pricing of $2,583 per month at $3.69 per square foot. Against the Richmond Hill submarket asking benchmark of $2,800 per month and $3.82 per square foot, 8888 Yonge's blended rate per square foot runs 33.8 percent higher, though the two-bedroom inventory actually undercuts the submarket PSF benchmark.
Marketing friction at 8888 Yonge is modest: the single delisted unit sat on market for 120 days at an asking rent of $5,400 per month, which is $2,812 above the 30-day realized lease average, indicating that overpriced premium suites face prolonged vacancy. Tenants hold negotiating leverage, with 45 percent of closed leases settling under asking rent for an average concession of $57 per month, or roughly $684 in annual savings. Active inventory offers three two-bedroom options, two three-bedroom-plus suites, and a single two-bedroom-plus-den unit, meaning renters seeking the most common layout have a small but workable selection while the den configuration represents a one-unit scarcity.

Active Market Insights & Questions

The average suite measures 694 square feet at a blended asking rate of $5.11 per square foot, and the two-bedroom tier accounts for 50 percent of available inventory. Current availability skews toward compact entry-level two-bedroom suites rather than multi-bedroom executive layouts, with the three-bedroom-plus tier representing one-third of listings at a substantially higher price point.
What floor plans and unit layouts are currently available at 8888 Yonge?
The two-bedroom layout dominates active inventory at 8888 Yonge with three listings and a 50 percent share, averaging $2,583 per month across 700 square feet at $3.69 per square foot. The three-bedroom-plus tier holds two units at 33.3 percent share, averaging $5,375 per month over 707 square feet at $7.62 per square foot, while the two-bedroom-plus-den configuration offers a single listing at 16.7 percent share, priced at $2,800 per month for 650 square feet at $4.31 per square foot.
What is the average asking rent and $/SF by suite size at 8888 Yonge?
8888 Yonge spans a $3,000 asking rent spread from a $2,500 entry point to a $5,500 peak, representing a 120 percent range across its six active listings. The median asking rent of $2,775 per month sits closer to the lower end of the spectrum. The entry-level two-bedroom suite measures 650 square feet at $3.85 per square foot, while the peak three-bedroom-plus listing covers 682 square feet at $8.06 per square foot, reflecting a premium configuration with significantly higher per-square-foot pricing.
How much extra do parking spaces and dens cost at 8888 Yonge?
8888 Yonge does not have a quantified den premium or square-footage delta isolable from current active listings, as the single two-bedroom-plus-den unit cannot support a reliable marginal-cost calculation. Parking stall premiums likewise cannot be reliably isolated from the current listing sample, and no verified historical parking benchmark exists in the lease data to anchor a reference figure. Renter inquiries on both den and parking add-on costs should be directed to the leasing office for unit-specific quotes.
How do asking rents at 8888 Yonge compare to local and municipal benchmarks?
8888 Yonge's active asking rent of $3,550 per month and $5.11 per square foot both exceed the Richmond Hill submarket benchmarks of $2,800 per month and $3.82 per square foot, with the building's blended rate per square foot running 33.8 percent above the submarket asking level. The nominal rent gap is amplified by the two three-bedroom-plus listings at $7.62 per square foot, whereas the two-bedroom tier at $3.69 per square foot actually undercuts the submarket PSF benchmark, indicating that suite-mix composition rather than uniform overpricing drives the blended premium. 8888 Yonge accounts for six of the 94 active listings in the Richmond Hill submarket, representing approximately 6.4 percent of total available inventory.

Leased Transaction Insights & Questions
How many suites were leased at 8888 Yonge last month, and how fast did they rent?
8888 Yonge in Richmond Hill closed leases in 14 days on average over the trailing 30 days, well ahead of the submarket benchmark of 28 days, while the 90-day average DOM sits at 43 days. The building logged 4 closed leases in the last 30 days, 15 over the past 90 days, and 20 lifetime leases since its July 2025 registration. Leasing velocity accelerated sharply into August, with the 30-day DOM dropping to 14 days from 43 days over the broader 90-day window, signalling that initial-occupancy demand is tightening as the summer window closes.
What is the negotiation spread between asking rents and closed lease prices at 8888 Yonge?
8888 Yonge tenants negotiated an average discount of $57 per month (1.69% below asking), saving them $684 per year in rent. Forty-five percent of all closed leases settled under the listed asking price, confirming measurable tenant leverage in this initial-occupancy market. Landlords at 8888 Yonge are conceding on price to close deals, and prospective tenants should expect room to push back on listed rates rather than accepting them at face value.
What are typical executed lease prices across different layouts at 8888 Yonge?
The two highest-volume anchor layouts at 8888 Yonge are the 2-Bedroom + Den (8 leases, $2,766/month average, 40-day DOM) and the standard 2-Bedroom (5 leases, $2,660/month average, 42-day DOM). The 1-Bedroom tier closed 3 leases at $1,900/month average across a 518-square-foot footprint ($3.68 per square foot, 39-day DOM); this is a limited sample and serves as a directional indicator only. The 1-Bedroom + Den tier recorded 2 leases at $2,325/month average over 600 square feet ($3.90 per square foot, 14-day DOM), also a small sample for directional reference. The 3-Bedroom+ tier closed 2 leases at $4,125/month average across 1,511 square feet ($2.74 per square foot, 99-day DOM), another small sample that should not be treated as a broad statistical benchmark.
What measurable rent premium did suites with parking achieve in closed leases at 8888 Yonge?
8888 Yonge does not have sufficient paired lease data to isolate a reliable parking premium, and the realized parking value is inconclusive. Active listings at the building also show unreliable or outlier parking figures that cannot be quoted as a meaningful market rate. Prospective tenants should treat any parking fee quoted by a landlord as a separate negotiation item rather than a fixed building standard.
How does the lease-to-listing ratio at 8888 Yonge reflect current tenant demand?
8888 Yonge rents climbed from $2,626 in May to a peak of $2,813 in July before retreating to $2,588 in August, reflecting a mid-summer price correction alongside a sharp drop in time-to-lease. May closed 5 leases at $2,626/month ($3.74 per square foot, 44-day DOM). June saw 7 leases close at $2,757/month ($3.59 per square foot, 34-day DOM). July recorded 4 leases at $2,813/month ($3.45 per square foot, 88-day DOM), the highest average rent but the slowest absorption of the period. August closed 4 leases at $2,588/month ($3.49 per square foot, 14-day DOM), the fastest leasing velocity of the tracked timeline.

De-Listed Market Analysis & Questions
How many listings de-listed at 8888 Yonge, and what was their re-listing price compared to previous asking?
8888 Yonge has 1 delisted unit to date, representing a 25% delisted-to-leased ratio against 4 recent leases in the trailing 30 days. The single delisting was an expired listing; no units were terminated or suspended. With only one delisted unit against a 204-suite building in initial occupancy, this is an early friction signal rather than a structural vacancy problem, but the 25% ratio warrants monitoring as the leasing pipeline matures.
How do asking prices on de-listed suites compare to executed leases and active listings at 8888 Yonge?
8888 Yonge's single delisted unit asked $5,400 per month, which is $2,812 per month (108.7%) above the realized 30-day lease average of $2,588 per month. The delisted listing carried a rate of $8.13 per square foot compared to the realized lease average of $3.49 per square foot, indicating direct overpricing rather than a footprint-driven nominal gap. This unit was priced well above what the market was actually transacting at the time of listing.
What market friction causes rental listings to stall or de-list at 8888 Yonge?
8888 Yonge's delisted unit sat on the market for 120 days, compared to a 14-day realized lease DOM over the trailing 30 days. That 106-day excess translates to roughly 3.5 months of lost rent at the $5,400 asking rate—approximately $19,074 in foregone revenue—plus ongoing condo maintenance fees for the duration. The prolonged marketing window underscores that pricing significantly above realized lease levels at 8888 Yonge carries a substantial vacancy carry cost.

Nearby Building Rental Comparables & Price Spreads
Direct rental rate comparisons against residential properties in the immediate vicinity.
8888 Yonge St, a 204-suite building by Metroview Developments with an estimated 2025 completion, sits in a tight competitive cluster along Yonge Street in Richmond Hill. The nearest rival is Westwood Gardens – East Tower at 8868 Yonge St, just 0.02 km away and completed in 2022, which recorded 16 closed leases over the trailing 180 days. Westwood Gardens – West Tower at 3 Rosewater St, 0.05 km to the south, also finished in 2022 and logged 6 closed leases in the same window. Further out, Gates of Bayview Glen II at 51 Baffin Crt (0.29 km) dates to 2002 and closed 4 leases, while Era at Yonge at 95 Oneida Cres (0.35 km), completed in 2024, posted the highest volume with 26 closed leases in the past 180 days. The competitive set therefore spans three distinct structural generations: a 2002-era mid-rise, a pair of 2022 towers, and a 2024 delivery, with 8888 Yonge entering the market as the newest asset in the group. Across these four comparables, the average closed-lease rent is $2,476 per month, the average rate is $3.70 per square foot, and the average suite measures 679 square feet. 8888 Yonge's all-time leased average of $2,702 per month and 786 square feet places it above the comp set on both rent and footprint. At $3.58 per square foot, the subject trades at a modest discount to three of the four competitors while commanding a small premium over the 2002-built Gates of Bayview Glen II. The net effect is a value proposition anchored in newer construction, larger interior space, and a per-square-foot rate that undercuts the 2022 and 2024 deliveries by roughly 3 to 7 percent.

Its dedicated Business Centre goes beyond the basic Meeting Room found at Westwood Gardens – East Tower and Gates of Bayview Glen II, offering a full-service workspace for remote professionals. The Indoor Kids' Play Room is absent from all four comparables, making it the only building in the cluster with a purpose-built children's space. In place of Westwood Gardens – East Tower's Sports Court, 8888 Yonge features a Games & Billiards Room for casual indoor recreation. Finally, the Pet Wash Station is missing from both Era at Yonge and Gates of Bayview Glen II, adding a convenience for pet-owning households.
