Renting in Mount Pleasant
Mount Pleasant is where a lot of Vancouver's design and tech offices ended up, and the rental market followed. It is central without being downtown.
New mid-rise lines Main and Kingsway, with converted warehouses toward Olympic Village. On the residential streets it is mostly older houses carved into suites.
The Broadway Subway is changing the north end of the neighbourhood, which is pushing rents up faster here than in most of the city.

Common questions
How fast do apartments in Mount Pleasant get rented?
Well-priced units in Mount Pleasant are usually gone within one to three days of being posted, and the best of them within hours. Being early matters more than being flexible.
Does a listing tell you what floor the apartment is on?
Usually not. Most rental ads in Metro Vancouver leave out the floor and which way the unit faces, even in buildings where those two things decide whether you look at a park or at the tower next door. We read the whole ad and flag what is missing so you know what to ask.
Where do Mount Pleasant rental listings actually get posted?
Plenty of them never reach the big rental portals. Owner-listed units in Mount Pleasant show up on Craigslist and Facebook groups first, and on the aggregators later if at all. We watch the places most renters forget to check.
Is Firstlook free?
Yes. You write the brief and we send the emails, which you can turn off from any message. We do not take a fee from you or from the landlord.
