The advertisement doesn’t say, and it matters:
- Which way does it face?

Approximate — listings rarely give an exact address, so treat this as the block, not the door.
Renting in West End
The West End is the most rental-heavy neighbourhood in the city, and the one where you get the most floor area for the money. Most of the stock is from the 1960s and 70s.
How this compares
What we’d expect it to ask
$1,901 / month
8 times in ten the answer lands between $1,603 and $2,168. That is the width of what we actually know, measured against listings this model had never seen — not a margin we chose.
Asking $1,650 is $251 below that — further below than the ±9.5% we can put down to our own error. On size and location alone, it asks less than its neighbours do.

Location
24 min on foot to Burrard (Expo Line), about 23 min to Waterfront.
How the score breaks down
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
$1,650 is $400 below the middle of the 31 studios we are tracking in West End right now ($2,050). Most of them ask between $1,950 and $2,325.
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
Laundry, parking, air conditioning, the bathroom count and whether the home sits below ground are priced in wherever the advertisement states them. The floor, the view, the light, the condition and the noise are not, and nothing we hold measures them: two identical floor plans, one renovated and one not, get the same estimate from us.
Where an advertisement says nothing, we price it as unsaid rather than as absent. A short ad is not a worse home, and scoring it as one would price the landlord’s writing instead of the flat.
The advertisement doesn’t say, and it matters:
- What floor is it on?
- Which way does it face?
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.
