What kind of homes are in Coquitlam East?

There is no single housing type in Coquitlam East. The active listings run detached houses at 58%, townhouses at 25% and condos at 13%, which means two buyers with the same budget can end up shopping for very different homes on the same streets.

Construction dates are spread out. The median home for sale dates to 1990, with most of the market falling between 1978 and 2011, so condition and updates vary a lot from listing to listing.

What do you actually get for the money?

50% of the homes for sale have four or more bedrooms, though smaller 2-bedroom homes still turn up regularly. Family-sized space is the norm here rather than the premium option.

A typical listing here offers about 2,272 sq ft of living space and 3 bathrooms.

Where a lot is reported, the median is 6,996 sq ft, which is what sets the ceiling on additions, laneway homes and future redevelopment.

33% of the listings report a finished basement, which in this city usually means either extra family space or a mortgage helper.

Enclosed parking is standard: 79% of listings include a garage.

Strata or freehold?

42% of the active listings are strata-titled and the rest are freehold, so the ownership question is a live one in Coquitlam East rather than settled by the neighbourhood.

Across the 10 listings that disclose one, the median strata fee is $368 per month. Read it against what it covers before comparing two buildings on price alone.
