Go to Contact Form ↓ Email: info@caprate.caWith Highway 401, the DVP, Gardiner Expressway and QEW running through Toronto, buyers of Daycares have access to a variety of submarkets — including the Downtown Core, Etobicoke, Scarborough, North York and The Junction — each with its own pricing dynamics, tenant base and long-term growth outlook. Toronto is the largest city in Canada, which continues to support demand.
Toronto's Multi-Residential & Mixed-Use base remains the backbone of the local commercial market, with the Eglinton Crosstown and Ontario Line transit expansion adding new momentum. Buyers of Daycares should weigh licensed childcare capacity, enrollment levels and government subsidy/funding programs carefully, since these elements typically drive both day-one returns and long-term value.
Here's why Toronto continues to attract buyers of Daycares, and what our team brings to your search.
Confirm the current licensed capacity by age group and whether the licence is transferable to a new operator under Ontario's child care licensing requirements.
Review current enrollment versus licensed capacity and any waitlist, which indicates demand and potential for growth.
Determine whether the daycare participates in the Canada-Wide Early Learning and Child Care (CWELCC) program, which affects fee structures and funding.
Confirm staff-to-child ratios meet regulatory requirements and assess staff retention, since qualified ECE staff can be difficult to replace.
Licensed daycare businesses with real estate can often be financed under standard owner-occupied commercial programs, while business-only purchases may require lenders familiar with childcare licensing and government funding programs.
In Toronto, for daycare properties with real estate, evaluate the building's suitability for continued licensed use (outdoor play space, washroom ratios) in addition to standard cap rate analysis. Local cap rates for Daycares currently sit around 3.5%–6%, with typical deal sizes in the $1M–$100M+ range.
