No idea, as I have never rented in Kitchener. I'm just thinking that there are going to be hundreds (thousands?) of vacant apartments in K-W by September, which makes me think that rents should be coming down. I know of several people here in Ottawa who have renewed their leases and negotiated a small reduction in their rent. I don't know how widespread it has become. Would it not usually be June/July when students are looking for apartments for the coming year? Although, as I said before, DTK might be the part of town least affected by this, if it's happening.
