The advertisement doesn’t say, and it matters:

  • What floor is it on?
  • Which way does it face?
  • Are pets allowed?

Roughly where it is

Approximate — listings rarely give an exact address, so treat this as the block, not the door.

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.

TransitExpo and Millennium Lines along the southern and eastern edges; heavy bus coverage on Commercial, Hastings and Kingsway.
Green spaceTrout Lake, Hastings Park and the PNE grounds, Central Park at the Boundary Road edge, New Brighton.

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.

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.

This one is unusually forthcoming. It does state:

HouseLaundry: in buildingParking: street only

Worth reading — but too rare across the feed for us to put a number on.

Counted 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.
