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.

Renting in Maple Ridge

Maple Ridge is where you stop paying Metro Vancouver prices for Metro Vancouver square footage. Listings here are routinely a bedroom larger than the same money buys in Burnaby.

TransitNo SkyTrain. The West Coast Express runs from Port Haney and Maple Meadows to Waterfront on weekday peaks only; otherwise it is the 701 bus to Coquitlam Central and the Millennium Line.
Green spaceGolden Ears Provincial Park and Alouette Lake on the doorstep, plus Kanaka Creek Regional Park and the dyke trails along the Fraser and the Pitt.

How this compares

What we’d expect it to ask

$1,925 / month

8 times in ten the answer lands between $1,486 and $2,451. That is the width of what we actually know, measured against listings this model had never seen — not a margin we chose.

Asking $1,850 is 3.9% below it — inside the ±10% this model cannot tell apart, so it is priced about where we’d expect.

Low confidence17 two-bedrooms within 4 kmTypically within 12.2%

Nearby two-bedrooms disagree with each other by about 28% from quartile to quartile, so the estimate is only as sharp as they are.

What moves that number

12.1 km from the nearest SkyTrain (Lincoln)−$156

The advertisement does not state a floor area, so size is not priced in.

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

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

$1,850 is $250 below the middle of the 21 two-bedrooms we are tracking in Maple Ridge right now ($2,100). Most of them ask between $1,800 and $2,300.

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

Laundry, parking, air conditioning, the bathroom count and whether the home sits below ground are priced in wherever the advertisement states them. The floor, the view, the light, the condition and the noise are not, and nothing we hold measures them: two identical floor plans, one renovated and one not, get the same estimate from us. This one gives no floor area either, so size is not in it at all.

Where an advertisement says nothing, we price it as unsaid rather than as absent. A short ad is not a worse home, and scoring it as one would price the landlord’s writing instead of the flat.

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.
