Ask before you view

The advertisement doesn’t say, and it matters:

  • Which way does it face?
  • Are pets allowed?
  • When is it available?

Roughly where it is

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

How this compares

Location

11 / 100car-dependent

No SkyTrain station within walking distance, about 68 min to Waterfront.

Walk to SkyTrainNearest station is King George, 2.6 km away — not a walk1
Transit to downtownAbout 68 min to Waterfront: bus to King George, then Expo Line straight through3

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

$500 is $1,000 below the middle of the 29 studios we are tracking in Surrey right now ($1,500). Most of them ask between $1,400 and $1,600.

A straight count of asking prices in the area, with nothing adjusted for — it does not care that this one may be bigger, smaller or better placed than the rest.

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:

HouseLaundry: in buildingParking: none

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.
