Free rent offered as move-in incentive at these Edmonton properties
If you’re currently looking for a place to rent in Edmonton, you’re in luck.
According to Rentals.ca, many cities are experiencing higher vacancy rates, causing property managers and landlords to continue offering incentives to compete for the best tenants, especially as work-from-home renters look for more space.
The COVID-19 pandemic has created a decrease in demand and higher vacancies, leading to greater availability and more options for those looking to rent.

This decrease in demand is due to a stall in immigration, fewer out-of-town students looking to rent in Edmonton, and some lower-income earners choosing to move back in with their families.
Additionally, many Edmontonians are looking for cheaper rentals, and people working from home are less confined by where they’re located and are choosing to rent outside of the city centre to get more value for their money.
Landlords and property managers are coming up with creative incentives, promotions, and deals to entice prospective tenants because of the changing marketplace.
