A word on what counts as a house here. These are listings the advertisement itself describes as a house, which in this region routinely means part of one: a basement suite, a ground-floor suite or an upper floor let separately. If you share a kitchen or bathroom with the person who owns it, you are outside the Residential Tenancy Act whatever the ad calls it, so it is worth establishing before you sign.
Figures come from the listings on this site rather than a market survey, and change as postings appear and expire.
Common questions
How much does it cost to rent a house in Vancouver?
Across the 143 houses we are tracking in Vancouver right now, the middle asks $2,700 a month. Most sit between $1,990 and $4,840, and the full range runs from $725 to $21,000. These are asking rents from current listings, not a market survey.
How many houses are for rent in Vancouver?
143 at the moment, counting each home once rather than once per advertisement. The number moves through the day as postings appear and expire, and this page is rebuilt to match.
Do rental houses in Vancouver come with parking?
71 of the 143 say parking is included, and 105 say the laundry is in the unit. Plenty of ads say nothing either way, so treat silence as a question to ask rather than a no.
Is renting a house different from renting an apartment in BC?
The Residential Tenancy Act applies either way, with one common exception: if you rent part of a house and share a kitchen or bathroom with the owner, section 4(c) takes you outside the Act entirely. That catches a lot of basement and upper-floor arrangements advertised as houses.
