short term rental udpate
Toronto Short Term Rental Changes coming into effect September 2024 and January 2025
Heads up Toronto homeowners who rent out their place short-term. New rules are coming in September and January next year.
This is all about helping home owners generate some extra income by renting their homes, while also keeping long-term rentals available for folks who need them.
Changes coming into effect on September 30, 2024:
You will be asked to submit, upon request, at least two documents in addition to your government-issued identification to provide additional evidence of principal residence.
You may be asked to attend an in-person interview with the City to present information or documents that may be required to evaluate your eligibility to be issued a short-term rental registration.
The City will have the authority to conduct annual inspections of all registered short-term rentals.
Your operator registration will be tied to your principal residence address. When a registration is revoked, you will not be able to apply for a new registration for one year and no other person will be able to apply for a registration related to your address for one year.
Only one registration will be allowed per dwelling unit.
Changes coming into effect on January 1, 2025:
Short-term rental operator registration and renewal fee will increase to $375.
You will need to choose between registering as either an entire-unit short-term rental operator (i.e. short-term renting your entire home) or as a partial-unit short-term rental operator (i.e. short-term renting only rooms in your home) for the duration of your registration period.
If you have a partial-unit rental (i.e. short-term renting only rooms in your home), you can only advertise one fewer than the number of bedrooms available in your principal residence. Partial-unit rental operators cannot rent out the entire dwelling unit at the same time.

Floor area
Thinking of buying a house?
This is a great resource to understand how floor area is measured in Ontario.
According to the Municipal Property Assessment Corporation (MPAC), floor area (aka square footage) is based on exterior measurements and excludes the attached garage and basement.
Understanding square footage is important when comparing houses.
It can give you a general idea of the size of the house, but it is not always an accurate representation of the usable space.
Let me know if you have any questions!
