Total Residential Rental Stats – Why Rent is Important for Investors

The latest numbers are in from the REALTORS® Association of Edmonton, and April 2025 continues to show strong rental demand across the Greater Edmonton Area — a promising sign for current and future real estate investors.

🔑 Key Highlights:

  • 40 total rented listings
  • 71 active rentals
  • Average days on market: 30
  • $1,237/month average for 1-bedroom units
  • $1,634/month average for 2-bedroom units

💼 Why This Matters for Investors:

As housing affordability continues to challenge many buyers, rental demand remains steady and strong — and the stats prove it. With units renting in just 30 days on average, investors can feel confident about consistent cash flow opportunities.

➡️ Rents are holding strong — and even increasing in many submarkets. For example:

  • A 2-bedroom rental bringing in $1,634/month means nearly $20K/year in rental income.
  • This kind of stability is ideal for investors aiming to offset mortgage costs or build passive income.

💡 Takeaway:

Whether you’re considering purchasing a condo to rent out or already own income property, Edmonton’s rental market is proving resilient. Low vacancy and quick turnover make it a solid environment for building long-term wealth through real estate.
