Studio Apartment for Rent in Coquitlam

What we’d expect it to ask

$1,783 / month

8 times in ten the answer lands between $1,318 and $2,343. That is the width of what we actually know, measured against listings this model had never seen — not a margin we chose.

Asking $1,650 is 7.5% below it — inside the ±11% this model cannot tell apart, so it is priced about where we’d expect.

Nearby studios disagree with each other by about 28% 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

9 min on foot to Lougheed Town Centre (Expo Line, Millennium Line), about 48 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.

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?
• When is it available?
