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?

Roughly where it is

How this compares

What we’d expect it to ask

$1,827 / month

8 times in ten the answer lands between $1,359 and $2,431. That is the width of what we actually know, measured against listings this model had never seen — not a margin we chose.

Asking $1,700 is 7% below it — inside the ±11.4% this model cannot tell apart, so it is priced about where we’d expect.

Low confidence20 one-bedrooms within 2 kmTypically within 14.3%

Nearby one-bedrooms disagree with each other by about 41% from quartile to quartile, so the estimate is only as sharp as they are.

What moves that number

800 ft², larger than most one-bedrooms nearby (typically 512 ft²)+$334
This block asks less than the rest of the area−$75

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

$1,700 is $100 above the middle of the 475 one-bedrooms we are tracking in Surrey right now ($1,600). Most of them ask between $1,350 and $1,800.

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.
