How this compares

What we’d expect it to ask

$2,466 / month

8 times in ten the answer lands between $1,834 and $3,281. That is the width of what we actually know, measured against listings this model had never seen — not a margin we chose.

Asking $2,800 is 13.5% above it — inside the ±13.5% this model cannot tell apart, so it is priced about where we’d expect.

Low confidence16 three-bedrooms within 4 kmTypically within 14.3%

Nearby 3-bedrooms disagree with each other by about 33% from quartile to quartile, so the estimate is only as sharp as they are.

What moves that number

This block asks less than the rest of the area−$425
5.2 km from the nearest SkyTrain (Lafarge Lake-Douglas)−$230
1200 ft², smaller than most three-bedrooms nearby (typically 1369 ft²)−$151

Each line is the difference this one thing makes, holding everything else where it is. They do not add up to the rent.

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

$2,800 is $180 below the middle of the 87 3-bedrooms we are tracking in Coquitlam right now ($2,980). Most of them ask between $2,582 and $3,345.

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.

This one is unusually forthcoming. It does state:

Floor 3ApartmentLaundry: in-suiteParking: street only

Worth reading — but too rare across the feed for us to put a number on.

The advertisement doesn’t say, and it matters:

  • Which way does it face?
  • Are pets allowed?

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.
