Ask before you view

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?

Roughly where it is

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

How this compares

What we’d expect it to ask

$2,348 / month

8 times in ten the answer lands between $1,733 and $3,072. That is the width of what we actually know, measured against listings this model had never seen — not a margin we chose.

Asking $2,800 is $452 above that — further above than the ±12.2% we can put down to our own error. Something about it may justify that; the ad may also simply be ambitious.

Low confidence20 two-bedrooms within 4 kmTypically within 14.5%

Thin or scattered comparables, so this is our roughest tier. Treat it as a bearing, not a valuation.

What moves that number

13.6 km from the nearest SkyTrain (Richmond-Brighouse)−$455
768 ft², smaller than most two-bedrooms nearby (typically 905 ft²)−$183

Each line is the difference this one thing makes, holding everything else where it is. They do not add up to the rent.

Location

4 / 100car-dependent

No SkyTrain station within walking distance, about 85 min to Waterfront.

Walk to SkyTrainNearest station is Richmond-Brighouse, 13.6 km away — not a walk0
Transit to downtownAbout 85 min to Waterfront: bus to Richmond-Brighouse, then Canada Line straight through1
Town centre3.4 km from the centre of Tsawwassen — the nearest town centre to this address3
More than one lineNo SkyTrain line is within walking distance0
Green spaceNo park of 10 ha or more within walking distance — nearest is Boundary Bay Regional Park, 4.4 km away0

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

$2,800 is $375 above the middle of the 35 two-bedrooms we are tracking in Delta right now ($2,425). Most of them ask between $2,182 and $2,922.

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.

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.
