Apartment building management in Newmarket.
Newmarket is northern York Region's main town, with a modest stock of apartment buildings around Davis Drive, Yonge Street and the historic Main Street. Southlake Regional Health Centre and the regional offices make it a strong market for working tenants. Older buildings date mostly from the 1970s and 1980s, and new mid-rise buildings are rising along the rapidway corridors, raising expectations for older stock.
Newmarket, specifically.
Apartment building management in Newmarket: the local picture
Apartment buildings cluster along Davis Drive between Yonge Street and Main Street, around Southlake Regional Health Centre, along Yonge Street near Upper Canada Mall, and in older low-rises near Main Street and the historic downtown. Viva rapidways on Davis Drive and Yonge Street connect them to Newmarket Terminal and Newmarket GO on the Barrie line. The hospital, the York Region administrative centre and businesses along Highway 404 support steady demand. New mid-rise buildings along Davis Drive are adding supply, and the rapidway has made the corridor the town's main focus for rental growth. Older low-rise buildings near Main Street are typically three storeys with no elevator.
Newmarket apartment buildings are regulated through the Town's property standards by-law, the Ontario Fire Code and the Residential Tenancies Act. Older buildings first occupied before November 15, 2018 are generally subject to the 2.1% rent increase guideline for 2026. Buildings near Southlake have many healthcare tenants working shifts, so after-hours response and quiet building rules matter. Fire alarm, sprinkler and emergency lighting inspections are monthly and annual obligations under the Fire Code. We keep those logs and contractor records for each Newmarket building and report monthly to owners.
