Listed at $3,500/mo, and my independent estimate is right in line with comparable rentals.
In Kensington-Chinatown lately, landlords get about 99% of asking; homes lease in ~17 days.
Total price vs nearby homes. Fair value about $3,567/mo, median of 78 comparables.
How this estimate is builtthe short version
I take the 78 most comparable recent leases nearby and adjust each one to this home for the real differences (size, beds, baths, garage, and standout features), then use the median, which is steadier than leaning on any single sale.
It’s grounded in recent lease prices, not asking prices. Lot, condition, and finishes are my in-person call.
