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

Renting in Burnaby

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:

ApartmentLaundry: in buildingParking: street only

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

The advertisement doesn’t say, and it matters:

  • What floor is it on?
  • When is it available?

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.
