The details

Roughly where it is
Approximate — listings rarely give an exact address, so treat this as the block, not the door.
Renting in East Vancouver
East Van is the most affordable part of the city proper, and the most house-suite-dependent. A large share of what rents here is a basement or upper floor of someone's home rather than an apartment building.
How this compares
What we’d expect it to ask
$4,563 / month
8 times in ten the answer lands between $3,395 and $6,073. That is the width of what we actually know, measured against listings this model had never seen — not a margin we chose.
Asking $6,000 is $1,437 above that — further above than the ±14.6% we can put down to our own error. Something about it may justify that; the ad may also simply be ambitious.
Nearby 6-bedrooms disagree with each other by about 45% 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
2 min on foot to Commercial-Broadway (Expo Line, Millennium Line), about 16 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.
The advertisement doesn’t say, and it matters:
- What floor is it on?
- Which way does it face?
- Is parking included or extra?
- Are pets allowed?
- When is it available?
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.
