2 Bedroom Apartment for Rent in Port Moody
$3,000 / month
A two-bedroom in Port Moody, asking $3,000 a month. The listing mentions pet friendly and 2 bathrooms. It leaves 4 obvious questions unanswered, starting with: which way does it face?
That is $250 above the middle of the 17 comparable rentals we are tracking in Port Moody, where most ask between $2,500 and $2,900.
The details
Highlights
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?
- When is it available?
Roughly where it is
Approximate — listings rarely give an exact address, so treat this as the block, not the door.
Renting in Port Moody
Port Moody is small and walkable. Rocky Point Park sits at the head of the inlet, and the trails start immediately behind the buildings.
How this compares
What we’d expect it to ask
$2,477 / month
8 times in ten the answer lands between $1,843 and $3,297. That is the width of what we actually know, measured against listings this model had never seen — not a margin we chose.
Asking $3,000 is $523 above that — further above than the ±11.8% we can put down to our own error. Something about it may justify that; the ad may also simply be ambitious.
Nearby two-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
The advertisement does not state a floor area, so size is not priced in.
Each line is the difference this one thing makes, holding everything else where it is. They do not add up to the rent.
Location
7 min on foot to Inlet Centre (Millennium Line), about 54 min to Waterfront.
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
$3,000 is $250 above the middle of the 17 two-bedrooms we are tracking in Port Moody right now ($2,750). Most of them ask between $2,500 and $2,900.
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 ad does not give a floor area either, so size is not in it.
The advertisement doesn’t say, and it matters:
- What floor is it on?
- Which way does it face?
- Is parking included or extra?
- 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.
