Buy or rent: Guelph condos by size
The table compares the median asking price, the median sale over the last 90 days and the median monthly rent for each unit size. Gross yield is a year of rent divided by the sale price (or the asking price where there were too few sales), before fees, tax and vacancy. 3 or more bedrooms show the highest gross yield in Guelph at 6.5%, which means the price equals about 15.5 years of rent. Take the median condo fee off the median rent and the yield across all sizes drops to about 4.7% before property tax.
| Unit size | Asking (median) | Sold, 90 days | Rent / month | Gross yield |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Studios and 1 bedrooms | $402K | $408K | $2,100 | 6.2% |
| 2 bedrooms | $515K | $515K | $2,450 | 5.7% |
| 3 or more bedrooms | $600K | $557K | $3,000 | 6.5% |
What condo fees run in Guelph
Half of the 252 listings that state a fee pay less than $492 a month, and half pay more. Per square foot that is about $0.48 a month, which is the fairer way to compare a large unit with a small one. Over a year the median fee adds up to $5,903, or 1.1% of the median asking price. It was $491 in October 2026. What the fee covers matters as much as its size: it pays for building insurance, the common areas, amenities and the reserve fund, and in many buildings heat and water as well.
