Clear monthly statements showing bookings, revenue, and payouts. No surprises.
TORONTO STR RULES
Toronto regulates short-term rentals tightly. Get it wrong and the City can fine you or delist your property. Here is what the bylaw requires, and how we keep you compliant.
You can only short-term rent the home you live in. Stays under 28 consecutive nights count as short-term rentals.
Operators must register with the City of Toronto, renew annually, and show the registration number on every listing. We handle the paperwork.
Entire-home rentals are capped at 180 nights per year. We track your nights and pivot to longer stays before you hit the limit.
Toronto charges a 6% MAT on short-term rental revenue. Airbnb remits it for platform bookings; we make sure everything else is filed.
ACROSS THE GTA
Our portfolio averages $250 RevPAR at an 80% occupancy rate, with 24/7 support behind every stay. We manage short-term rentals across Toronto, North York, Etobicoke, Scarborough, Mississauga, Vaughan, Richmond Hill, and Oakville, with local cleaning and maintenance teams in every market.
FAQ
The questions Toronto owners ask us most, before and after they switch to Certus.
Yes. The City of Toronto requires every short-term rental operator to register, renew annually, and display the registration number on all listings and ads. The property must be your principal residence. Certus handles registration and compliance as part of our management service.
Entire-home short-term rentals are capped at 180 nights per calendar year. Renting individual rooms is not subject to the cap. We track your nights and shift your calendar to 28-plus-night stays once you approach the limit, so your property keeps earning year-round.
Our plans run from 10% to 20% per booking depending on service level. Essential Stewardship (10%) covers listings, bookings, guest communication, cleaning, and insurance. Refined Residence (15%) adds dynamic pricing and listing SEO. Prestige Management (20%) adds financial reporting, licensing support, and a dedicated account manager.
It depends on location, size, and finish, but our portfolio currently averages $250 RevPAR at 80% occupancy. A well-run short-term rental in Toronto typically outperforms traditional monthly rent. Book a free consultation and we will run the numbers for your specific property.
Guests pay it on top of the nightly rate. Airbnb collects and remits the MAT automatically for bookings made through its platform. For direct or other-platform bookings, we make sure it is collected and filed correctly.
Yes, just not as a nightly Airbnb, since Toronto's bylaw restricts short-term rentals to principal residences. We manage it as a corporate or mid-term rental with stays of 28 nights or more, which sits outside the bylaw entirely and suits furnished condos and investment properties well.
