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

How this compares

What we’d expect it to ask

$2,339 / month

8 times in ten the answer lands between $1,729 and $3,074. That is the width of what we actually know, measured against listings this model had never seen — not a margin we chose.

Asking $1,900 is $439 below that — further below than the ±12.1% we can put down to our own error. On size and location alone, it asks less than its neighbours do.

Asks less than we’d expect

Low confidence20 two-bedrooms within 4 kmTypically within 14.5%

Nearby two-bedrooms disagree with each other by about 26% from quartile to quartile, so the estimate is only as sharp as they are.

What moves that number

1000 ft², larger than most two-bedrooms nearby (typically 800 ft²)+$229
3.9 km from the nearest SkyTrain (Coquitlam Central)−$159

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

Location

12 / 100car-dependent

No SkyTrain station within walking distance, about 75 min to Waterfront.

Walk to SkyTrainNearest station is Coquitlam Central, 3.9 km away — not a walk0

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

$1,900 is $400 below the middle of the 291 two-bedrooms we are tracking in Coquitlam right now ($2,300). Most of them ask between $1,895 and $2,650.

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.
