How this compares

What we’d expect it to ask

$4,521 / month

8 times in ten the answer lands between $3,363 and $6,016. That is the width of what we actually know, measured against listings this model had never seen — not a margin we chose.

Asking $5,000 is 10.6% above it — inside the ±13.3% this model cannot tell apart, so it is priced about where we’d expect.

Low confidence19 four-bedrooms within 4 kmTypically within 14.3%

Nearby 4-bedrooms disagree with each other by about 35% from quartile to quartile, so the estimate is only as sharp as they are.

What moves that number

2500 ft², larger than most four-bedrooms nearby (typically 1900 ft²)+$527
This block asks less than the rest of the area−$311
3.6 km from the nearest SkyTrain (Richmond-Brighouse)−$281

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 58 min to Waterfront.

Walk to SkyTrainNearest station is Richmond-Brighouse, 3.6 km away — not a walk0

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

$5,000 is $1,500 above the middle of the 48 4-bedrooms we are tracking in Richmond right now ($3,500). Most of them ask between $1,200 and $4,238.

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:

HouseLaundry: in-suiteParking: comes with the unit

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.
