Ask before you view

The advertisement doesn’t say, and it matters:

  • Which way does it face?
  • Is parking included or extra?
  • Are pets allowed?
  • When is it available?

How this compares

What we’d expect it to ask

$2,495 / month

8 times in ten the answer lands between $1,844 and $3,279. That is the width of what we actually know, measured against listings this model had never seen — not a margin we chose.

Asking $3,860 is $1,365 above that — further above than the ±13.7% we can put down to our own error. Something about it may justify that; the ad may also simply be ambitious.

Low confidence20 three-bedrooms within 4 kmTypically within 14.5%

Nearby 3-bedrooms disagree with each other by about 39% from quartile to quartile, so the estimate is only as sharp as they are.

What moves that number

This block asks less than the rest of the area−$451
3.5 km from the nearest SkyTrain (Lafarge Lake-Douglas)−$148
1250 ft², smaller than most three-bedrooms nearby (typically 1369 ft²)−$107

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

$3,860 is $910 above the middle of the 83 3-bedrooms we are tracking in Coquitlam right now ($2,950). Most of them ask between $2,562 and $3,345.

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:

  • 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.
