1 Bedroom Apartment for Rent in Vancouver
$2,080 / month
A 650 ft² one-bedroom apartment in Vancouver, asking $2,080 a month. The listing mentions laundry in building, parking included and pet friendly. It leaves 3 obvious questions unanswered, starting with: when is it available?
At $2,080 for 650 square feet, the asking rent works out to $3.20 per square foot.
That is $20 below the middle of the 423 comparable rentals we are tracking in Vancouver, where most ask between $1,750 and $2,395.
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?
- When is it available?
Roughly where it is
Approximate — listings rarely give an exact address, so treat this as the block, not the door.
Renting in Vancouver
Vancouver is the tightest rental market in Canada, and the good units are gone within a day or two of being posted. Refreshing listings by hand is how most people lose the apartment they wanted.
How this compares
Location
6 min on foot to King Edward (Canada Line), about 20 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
$2,080 is $20 below the middle of the 423 one-bedrooms we are tracking in Vancouver right now ($2,100). Most of them ask between $1,750 and $2,395.
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:
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.
