Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation’s 2025 mid-year report on rentals points to advertised rents in decline.

The report attributes the decline to a reduction in the number of international students coming to Canada as a result of a change in federal immigration policy.

The average rent nationally has fallen for nine straight months , according to rentals.ca.

“Investors couldn’t wait to invest in Windsor , but they’re hesitant to buy into the rental market right now,” Surette said. Twitter.com/winstarwaddell.
