- Accessory apartments: permit, fire review, registryEvery accessory apartment application gets a Fire Department review, charged at application in addition to the building permit fees, and the Town keeps an Accessory Apartment Registry. Check with Planning first that the zoning, parking and sewer capacity allow a second unit.Source: Town of East Gwillimbury, accessory apartments, checked October 18, 2026
- Newer homes and rent controlMuch of East Gwillimbury's housing is new. Units first lived in after November 15, 2018 are exempt from Ontario's yearly guideline; older units follow it: 1.9% for 2027.Source: Government of Ontario, residential rent increases, checked October 18, 2026
- The standard lease, for every new tenancyMost residential leases signed in Ontario must use the province's standard lease, and the landlord gives the tenant a copy within 21 days of signing. Terms such as no-pet clauses or damage deposits are void even if written in.Source: Government of Ontario, guide to the standard lease, checked October 18, 2026

Renting in East Gwillimbury: what we see
East Gwillimbury is a fast-growing town of separate communities between Newmarket and Lake Simcoe, and most of its rentals are newer houses and townhouses.
Sharon and Queensville
New subdivisions near Highway 404 and the East Gwillimbury GO station on the Barrie line. Tenants often work in Newmarket, at Southlake Health or in the Highway 404 business parks, or commute to Toronto.
Holland Landing
Older houses on larger lots beside Newmarket, and newer homes to the north. Some older homes are on private services, which changes what can be added and what goes in the lease.
Mount Albert and the east end
A small town with a village main street, plus rural homes and farms. Tenants here usually want space and a quieter setting, and need a car for nearly everything.

Is my East Gwillimbury basement apartment legal to rent?
It needs a building permit and the Fire Department's review, and it goes on the Town's Accessory Apartment Registry.
Can my lease ban pets?
Not in Ontario: a lease term that forbids pets is void. Condo rules can still restrict some pets. We screen every applicant the same way and explain the rules to both sides.
How fast do East Gwillimbury homes rent?
Our average across all our placements is 14 days from listing to a signed lease. Newer houses near the GO station and Highway 404 tend to draw the most inquiries.
