1 Bedroom House for Rent in Surrey
$2,350 / month
A 950 ft² one-bedroom house in Surrey, asking $2,350 a month. The listing mentions water views, in-suite laundry and parking included. One thing the listing does not answer: which way does it face?
At $2,350 for 950 square feet, the asking rent works out to $2.47 per square foot.
That is $750 above the middle of the 475 comparable rentals we are tracking in Surrey, where most ask between $1,350 and $1,800.
The details
Highlights
Ask before you view
The advertisement doesn’t say, and it matters:
- Which way does it face?
Roughly where it is
Approximate — listings rarely give an exact address, so treat this as the block, not the door.
Renting in Surrey
Surrey City Centre has the cheapest new high-rise in Metro Vancouver. A new one-bedroom with a gym and parking here costs what an older walk-up costs in Vancouver.
How this compares
What we’d expect it to ask
$2,193 / month
8 times in ten the answer lands between $1,687 and $2,780. That is the width of what we actually know, measured against listings this model had never seen — not a margin we chose.
Asking $2,350 is 7.2% above it — inside the ±11.4% this model cannot tell apart, so it is priced about where we’d expect.
What moves that number
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 110 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
$2,350 is $750 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.
This one is unusually forthcoming. It does state:
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?
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.
