How this compares

What we’d expect it to ask

$1,821 / month

8 times in ten the answer lands between $1,355 and $2,423. That is the width of what we actually know, measured against listings this model had never seen — not a margin we chose.

Asking $1,980 is 8.7% above it — inside the ±11.4% this model cannot tell apart, so it is priced about where we’d expect.

Low confidence20 one-bedrooms within 4 kmTypically within 14.3%

Nearby one-bedrooms disagree with each other by about 28% from quartile to quartile, so the estimate is only as sharp as they are.

What moves that number

510 ft², smaller than most one-bedrooms nearby (typically 629 ft²)−$181
2.5 km from the nearest SkyTrain (Moody Centre)−$62

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 66 min to Waterfront.

Green space9 min walk to Bert Flinn Park (79 ha)7

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

$1,980 is $20 below the middle of the 21 one-bedrooms we are tracking in Port Moody right now ($2,000). Most of them ask between $1,800 and $2,100.

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.

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?

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.
