rents for all property types across the country just saw their slowest rate of growth since October 2021 — largely due to falling international student enrolment, a new report says.Last month, rents across Canada reached an average of $2,193 per month, according to Rentals.ca and Urbanation’s latest National Rent Report.The report pointed to falling numbers of international student enrolments as being behind the trends.“Rents in Canada are increasing at their slowest pace in nearly three years, largely the result of foreign student enrolments dropping by roughly a half from their record highs, with the impact felt most in B.C. and Ontario,” said Shaun Hildebrand, president of Urbanation.“Meanwhile, smaller, more affordable markets continue to see strong upward pressure on rents as demand shifts to less expensive parts of the country,” Hildebrand said.Despite the slowdown in price growth, rents are 13.4-per cent higher than two years ago and 25.2-per cent higher than three years ago.Condominium rents across Canada declined by 1.7 per cent, averaging $2,296 in September.
