However, the latest batch of new rental buildings now offer many of the conveniences condo-buyers have grown accustomed to - and with a market downturn upon us, this fall and winter may be a renter's best chance to scoop up a deal in a full-service luxury building at an approachable prices. Below is a list of some recent launches throughout the metro area.
