PHOTOS: These are the Cheapest Apartments in Mississauga Right Now
Published January 29, 2019 at 4:03 am
While Mississauga has never really been known for being a cheap place to live (at least not in recent years), few people could have predicted that the city’s rental market would become as tight (and therefore expensive) as it has over the past 24 months.
With a vacancy rate of just 0.8 per cent (a healthy rental market has a rate of 3 per cent), rentals are rare, and therefore costly.
But believe it or not, some affordable units are indeed available, and some cost less than $1,000 a month.
While you might be sacrificing space, you can get a safe and comfortable home for less.
Here’s a look at some of the cheapest units that have hit the market in Mississauga over the past month, courtesy of real estate brokerage Zoocasa.
