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?

Renting in East Vancouver

East Van is the most affordable part of the city proper, and the most house-suite-dependent. A large share of what rents here is a basement or upper floor of someone's home rather than an apartment building.

How this compares

What we’d expect it to ask

$3,244 / month

8 times in ten the answer lands between $2,414 and $4,317. That is the width of what we actually know, measured against listings this model had never seen — not a margin we chose.

Asking $3,350 is 3.3% above it — inside the ±13.3% this model cannot tell apart, so it is priced about where we’d expect.

Low confidence20 four-bedrooms within 4 kmTypically within 14.3%

Nearby 4-bedrooms disagree with each other by about 52% from quartile to quartile, so the estimate is only as sharp as they are.

What moves that number

1200 ft², smaller than most four-bedrooms nearby (typically 1554 ft²)−$402

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

$3,350 is $450 below the middle of the 33 4-bedrooms we are tracking in East Vancouver right now ($3,800). Most of them ask between $3,200 and $5,250.

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.
