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?
- 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 Brentwood
Brentwood went from a suburban mall to a forest of forty-storey towers in about a decade. Nearly everything renting here was built after 2018. Air conditioning is standard, so is a gym, and most buildings have EV parking.
How this compares
What we’d expect it to ask
$2,660 / month
8 times in ten the answer lands between $2,046 and $3,373. That is the width of what we actually know, measured against listings this model had never seen — not a margin we chose.
Asking $3,200 is $540 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.
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
15 min on foot to Brentwood Town Centre (Millennium Line), about 44 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
$3,200 is $312 above the middle of the 98 two-bedrooms we are tracking in Brentwood right now ($2,888). Most of them ask between $2,700 and $3,000.
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:

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.
