Short-term rentals in the Canadian housing market

Stats in brief: 11-621-M2024010
Description: The paper focuses on the subset of short-term rentals (STRs) that could potentially serve as long-term housing. This subset of STRs, referred to as potential long-term dwellings (PLTDs), is intended to capture STR units that are not serving as anyone’s primary residence, but could potentially function as long-term housing (either as owner-occupied or rental units). The PLTD subset is compared with total housing units (owned or rented) at the national, provincial and territorial levels, as well as in major census metropolitan areas and in tourist areas.
