1 Bedroom Apartment for Rent in Vancouver

$2,450 / month

A 514 ft² one-bedroom apartment in Vancouver, asking $2,450 a month. The listing mentions ground floor, in-suite laundry and parking included. One thing the listing does not answer: which way does it face?

At $2,450 for 514 square feet, the asking rent works out to $4.77 per square foot.

That is $350 above the middle of the 398 comparable rentals we are tracking in Vancouver, where most ask between $1,750 and $2,371.

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.

TransitExpo, Millennium and Canada Lines; most of the city is inside a 30-minute commute to downtown.
Green spaceStanley Park, Queen Elizabeth Park, VanDusen, the seawall and False Creek greenway.

Location

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

$2,450 is $350 above the middle of the 398 one-bedrooms we are tracking in Vancouver right now ($2,100). Most of them ask between $1,750 and $2,371.

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:

Floor 0ApartmentLaundry: in-suiteParking: comes with the unitDishwasher

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.
