Rent is ideal for dwelling (11)

I believe the answer is:

residential

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'for dwelling' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'rent is ideal' is the wordplay.
'rent is ideal' anagrams to 'RESIDENTIAL'.
But, I am unsure how this is indicated.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for residential that I've seen before include "relative to a home" , "Suitable for houses" , "living accommodation" , "Pertaining to housing" , "End listeria (anag.)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
