"Vacancy rates will decline in most cities because of increasing job growth, reduced construction of rental housing and fewer renters buying homes," says Dan Guerrette, senior market analyst at CMHC‘s Market Analysis Centre. For the first time in three years, Canada had a major centre with a vacanâ€" cy rate under one per cent in October â€" Vancouver (0.8 per cent.) Toronto (1.2 per cent) and Windsor (1.6 per cent) were close behind. "High mortgage rates have caused home buying to ease, especially in the wake of stepped up buying in late 1993 and early 1994 due to the low mortgage rates at that time." Toronto also had considerably fewer new rental units completed in the last year compared with the previous year. In (See ‘Biggest,‘ page 3) Lower vacancy rates in Vancouver and Toronto were caused by higher mortâ€" gage rates which discouraged renters from buying.
