Apartments for Rent in Edmonton

Renting an apartment is a cost-effective way for anyone to enjoy life in Edmonton. This beautiful city is seated along the North Saskatchewan River and offers a vast amount of culture and scenic beauty to potential rental seekers. The city features a rich historic district with places for rent located near stunning architecture and a wide range of historic sites for all ages to enjoy. If shopping is a favorite pastime, you will certainly want to rent near the iconic West Edmonton Mall, which has long been a destination stop for tourists from around the world.

Benefits of an apartment and condo living include private swimming pools, gyms and dedicated pet-walking areas as well as movie theaters and social lounges reserved for the exclusive use of tenants. In addition to your choice of furnished or unfurnished, you can further enhance the quality of life by renting in the downtown core keeping your commute times low and your need for a car virtually non-existent.  

As the capital of Alberta and one of the two major cities in the province, it is to be expected that the cost of living is higher than in other cities across the country.  Known for its high-paying jobs which are driven by the cash rich energy sector, those considering Edmonton rental properties for rent would be wise to budget a little extra to ensure you have enough in the bank to cover living expenses.

To find the perfect pace to rent, there are a few things to consider.

Find A Great Neighborhood

Edmonton is flush with many great neighborhoods.  From the downtown core that is constantly bustling with energy and excitement to feeder communities that offer more affordable apartments and larger living spaces.  It is best to research the city and decide on a region that will work for you and your renting needs. We offer the perfect tool to assist in your rental search by location; it is called Search by Map. Use this feature to easily find available rental properties in the area you wish to live.

Get The Amenities You Want

Amenities are the extra beyond the basic property rental living space, and you can typically expect to pay more for them. This is where you need to know how much more you are willing to pay for an amazing view of the city, access to a private swimming pool, Wi-Fi, a party room, a BBQ area, a meeting room or 24-hour valet parking.

Consider The Extras Before You Move

Some extras are a necessity, such as a laundry room or access to a laundromat, included furnishing and appliances or access to parking and public transportation.  Calculate what these extras are worth to you, and keep them in mind while you shop for your next rental property.

Know Your Monthly Rental Budget

Figure out how much you can afford to spend on rent, then take advantage of the filters and search tools to find a new home rental with the features you want at the price you want to pay. Be aware that you might have to adjust your budget if you are looking for an amenity-rich rental property at a discounted rate.  Knowing your budget and what you want, however, will help you get into the best property rental for your money. Minimizing luxuries and amenities will allow you to find cheap rentals.

Houses & Apartments Rent Quickly

When you get to the stage of looking at Edmonton apartments, houses, condos or townhouses for rent and you walk into the one that feels like home, saver it by knowing you have already done your research and feel confident in renting your new home.
