The details
Roughly where it is
Approximate — listings rarely give an exact address, so treat this as the block, not the door.
Renting in Burnaby
Burnaby is where most of Metro Vancouver's new towers actually got built. If you want a recent building with air conditioning and in-suite laundry, there is far more of it here than in Vancouver proper, and usually for less money.
How this compares
What we’d expect it to ask
$1,433 / month
8 times in ten the answer lands between $1,066 and $1,906. That is the width of what we actually know, measured against listings this model had never seen — not a margin we chose.
Asking $1,450 is 1.2% above it — inside the ±11.4% this model cannot tell apart, so it is priced about where we’d expect.
Nearby one-bedrooms disagree with each other by about 44% from quartile to quartile, so the estimate is only as sharp as they are.
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
24 min on foot to Holdom (Millennium Line), about 49 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
$1,450 is $400 below the middle of the 223 one-bedrooms we are tracking in Burnaby right now ($1,850). Most of them ask between $1,600 and $2,200.
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.
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.
