Apartment building management in Markham.

Markham's apartment rental market is small next to its ownership housing, which makes each purpose-built building valuable. Older stock sits mostly in Thornhill near Yonge and Steeles, while new rental towers are coming to Markham Centre around Highway 7 and Warden. Tenants include tech workers, students and multigenerational households, and they expect buildings to run as smoothly as the newer condos competing with them.

What we focus on

Markham, specifically.

Thornhill tower upkeepOlder Thornhill buildings get updated lobbies, corridor lighting and laundry at a sensible pace, so they stay competitive with nearby condo rentals.
New-build operationsFor Markham Centre rentals, building procedures, contractor agreements and move-in rules written before the first tenant arrives, not after the first complaint.
Multigenerational householdsLarger suites screened fairly for household size and income, with occupancy, parking and storage rules explained clearly at lease signing for extended families.
Amenity managementGyms, party rooms and parcel rooms booked, cleaned and maintained on a schedule that tenants can see, since amenities drive renewals in newer towers.

Apartment building management in Markham: the local picture

On the Markham side of Thornhill, rental towers and mid-rises from the 1970s stand near John Street, Bayview Avenue and Steeles, close to Line 1 at Finch. Markham Centre, the planned downtown along Highway 7 and Enterprise Boulevard, is adding purpose-built rental next to York University's Markham campus, with Viva Purple running in the rapidway. Unionville and Markham village are served by the Stouffville GO line at Unionville, Centennial and Markham stations. Large employers in the Highway 404 and 407 tech corridor support steady demand for well-run suites.

Markham rental buildings are regulated through the City's property standards by-law, the Ontario Fire Code and the Residential Tenancies Act. Newer towers in Markham Centre are generally exempt from the rent increase guideline if first occupied after November 15, 2018, while Thornhill buildings typically are not. Owners of older buildings considering redevelopment should check provincial and municipal rental replacement policy before planning, because the rules for buildings with six or more rental units can be demanding. We keep fire safety plans, inspection logs and the tenant notices behind them in order for every Markham building.

FAQ

Markham questions.

Something else? Ask us directly

Do you manage new purpose-built rentals in Markham Centre?

For a new rental tower near Highway 7 and Warden we set up leasing, rent collection, amenity booking and building procedures, then track builder deficiencies through the warranty period. Monthly owner statements include invoices and photos.

Is Markham's rental market mostly condos?

Much of it is. Many rental suites in Markham are individually owned condos, which is why a well-run purpose-built building with one landlord and consistent rules stands out. Owners of single suites can see our <a href="/condo-rental-management-markham">condo rental management in Markham</a>.
