How this compares

What we’d expect it to ask

$2,886 / month

8 times in ten the answer lands between $2,147 and $3,840. That is the width of what we actually know, measured against listings this model had never seen — not a margin we chose.

Asking $4,395 is $1,509 above that — further above than the ±13.5% we can put down to our own error. Something about it may justify that; the ad may also simply be ambitious.

Low confidence20 three-bedrooms within 2 kmTypically within 14.3%

Nearby 3-bedrooms disagree with each other by about 37% from quartile to quartile, so the estimate is only as sharp as they are.

What moves that number

1260 ft², larger than most three-bedrooms nearby (typically 1035 ft²)+$245
This block asks less than the rest of the area−$214
3.0 km from the nearest SkyTrain (29th Avenue)−$134

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

$4,395 is $1,395 above the middle of the 201 3-bedrooms we are tracking in East Vancouver right now ($3,000). Most of them ask between $2,799 and $3,500.

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:

  • 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.
