Rental markets are now the tightest in Western Canada
The real estate boom and economic boom in Western Canada is bringing in workers from other provinces and pushing the rental vacancy rate to the lowest in Canada, according to CMHC.
The major city's in Canada with the lowest vacancy rates are Calgary at 0.5 percent and Vancouver at 0.8 percent while the average rental apartment vacancy rate in the rest of Canada is 2.8 percent.
Another factor that has attributed to this is the real estate markets in Vancouver and Calgary. As prices have risen on average of 15% over the past three years, many people are opting to rent instead of buying real estate.
Real Estate in Vancouver is expected to rise at 7-10 in 2007 and 7-10 percent in 2008
