The details
Highlights
Ask before you view
The advertisement doesn’t say, and it matters:
- What floor is it on?
- Which way does it face?
- Is parking included or extra?
- Are pets allowed?
- When is it available?
Roughly where it is
Approximate — listings rarely give an exact address, so treat this as the block, not the door.
Renting in West Vancouver
West Vancouver is the most expensive rental municipality on this side of the region, and the smallest by supply. Most of it is single-family housing on the slope, so the apartments that do come up are concentrated in a narrow band along Marine Drive.
How this compares
What we’d expect it to ask
$5,836 / month
8 times in ten the answer lands between $4,332 and $7,720. That is the width of what we actually know, measured against listings this model had never seen — not a margin we chose.
Asking $3,300 is $2,536 below that — further below than the ±13.5% we can put down to our own error. On size and location alone, it asks less than its neighbours do.
Asks less than we’d expect
Thin or scattered comparables, so this is our roughest tier. Treat it as a bearing, not a valuation.
What moves that number
Each line is the difference this one thing makes, holding everything else where it is. They do not add up to the rent.
Location
No SkyTrain station within walking distance, about 57 min to Waterfront.
Scored from the map pin alone — rapid transit, town centres and parks, in straight lines. It knows nothing about the street, the hill, the building or the neighbours, and buses and the SeaBus are not in it, so places served by those score lower here than they deserve.
Against the ones next to it
$3,300 is $3,600 below the middle of the 34 3-bedrooms we are tracking in West Vancouver right now ($6,900). Most of them ask between $4,595 and $8,838.
A straight count of asking prices in the area, with nothing adjusted for — unlike the estimate above, it does not care that this one is bigger or closer to a station.
What the estimate cannot see
Floor, view, condition, noise and everything inside the walls are missing from all but a handful of the advertisements we index, so none of them are priced in above. Two identical floor plans, one renovated and one not, get the same estimate from us.

Estimated from the listings on this site, not a market survey, and from asking rents — what a home is advertised at, not what it lets for.
